APPENDIX A: Air quality map for Ottawa

The map below was produced by Ottawa’s EMME/2 model using 1995 data. It shows the daily emissions per roadway for the Ottawa-Gatineau area. The volume of emissions on a road is represented by the thickness of the line. The Queensway is easily identified as the thickest line on the map (running roughly diagonally from the lower left to upper right). The next biggest segment is all of the roads in the Centretown area seen as a solid black square just above the middle of the Queensway where it is thickest.
