flag A Ottawa report warns banning right turns on red in downtown could raise crash risks, congestion, and enforcement issues.

flag A City of Ottawa staff report warns that banning right turns on red in the downtown core could increase safety risks, traffic congestion, and enforcement challenges. flag The review, prompted by a July 2025 collision near City Hall, found such a ban may raise the risk of "right hook" crashes with cyclists, increase driver aggression, and cause vehicle queuing. flag It also notes potential non-compliance at low-traffic intersections and heightened dangers when drivers yield to pedestrians and cyclists at crosswalks. flag The findings are set for presentation to the public works and infrastructure committee.
