Jessica Bradley, the re-elected councillor for Ward 10 Gloucester-Southgate, says she will focus her second term on improving transit connections along Hunt Club Road, advancing affordable housing in Heatherington, and creating a new park at the South Keys Shopping Centre site, Capital Current reported on November 12.
Bradley won the Ward 10 seat on October 26 with 7,506 votes, according to the City of Ottawa's results.
Transit along Hunt Club Road
Bradley's campaign says she will push for upgrades to the intersection at Hunt Club Road and Bank Street and at Daze Street and Hunt Club Road, according to Capital Current. The platform also commits to starting planning for a rebuilt Bank Street bridge over the railway and improving walking, cycling and transit links along Hunt Club Road and Airport Parkway.
Capital Current reported Bradley said of the city's transit agency: "I think OC Transpo is moving in the right direction, but they need to stay focused on the basic needs."
Housing and parks
Bradley says she will advance affordable housing in the Heatherington neighbourhood with a public park and community amenities, Capital Current reports. Her platform does not set out a unit count or a construction timeline. She also plans a "signature urban park" at the South Keys Shopping Centre site, connected to the South Keys transit station, as part of a phased redevelopment there.
Her stated agenda also includes modernizing the Sawmill Creek Community Centre and Pool and renewing the splash pad and wading pool at Greenboro Park, with improved play facilities at Aladdin and Kemp parks, Capital Current reports.
None of these commitments have been voted on by council. They are stated priorities from Bradley's platform, and her record of action on them will be recorded in her tracker once the new council is seated.
Ottawa's new council, including Bradley, takes office on November 15. Residents in Ward 10 can track whether she acts on these commitments at her promise tracker page.
