A petition opposing the summertime closure to cars has garnered nearly 7,000 signatures.
“If you live in the Ottawa area, Gatineau Park is dear to your heart. We have no idea what the schedule will be this summer.”
In 2021, the NCC added a shuttle bus from downtown Ottawa to key spots in the park. The NCC said the shuttle carried 15,000 passengers on the 10 weekends it operated last summer.Advertisement 4“We asked why the shuttle didn’t run during the week and the answer they gave was that there wasn’t enough ridership to justify the trips,” Qadi said.
