Robert Grant Avenue

Joining the communities of Stittsville and Kanata South, Fernbank is a planned new community covering 674-hectares that, once complete, will accommodate up to 31,000 new residents. The new community’s transportation spine is Robert Grant Avenue, an arterial roadway that, once completed, will tie Fernbank to the Highway 416-Palladium Drive interchange.

The first phase of construction includes 1.4 kilometres of roadway linking Fernbank Road to Abbott Street through greenfield development, with associated stormwater management and utility infrastructure. The design incorporated 3 new roundabouts, a fully signalized intersection, a multi-use pathway, raised asphalt cycle tracks, sidewalks and both short height and tall height LED lighting.
