A member of the Alpine NA had a recent meeting with the Region in regards to the specific process of the roundabout construction on Ottawa this summer: http://alpine-cna.blogspot.ca/2017/02/yo...about.html
In short, a temporary replacement for Ottawa will be built just north of the current road and will carry traffic from May to August while the roundabouts are built. Access from the south will be cut off; traffic will be detoured down Strasburg and Courtland to Block Line. The new roundabouts will open in September. Presumably they then need to remove the temporary road and do other updates to the landscape.
