Country Place is a residential neighbourhood near the geographical centre of Ottawa, Canada and part of the former city of Nepean. It is a mature residential subdivision with about 400 houses located just inside the Ottawa greenbelt near the Rideau River, and about 11 km from downtown Ottawa. It is bordered by the Black Rapids Creek and the greenbelt to the south, Prince of Wales Drive to the east, Merivale Road to the west, and the Pineglen community to the north. Amberwood Drive meanders through the community, exiting onto Prince of Wales and Merivale. Tennyson Drive links Country Place to Pineglen. Houses in Country Place were built mostly in the early 1970s and are similar in size and design. The only exceptions are houses on Campfield Ct. which was built in the 1980s on land that had originally been set aside for a possible school. The community has an active community association that runs events several times a year, maintains an outdoor rink in the winter, and helps promote the interests of the residents. Country Place is within the Knoxdale-Merivale Ward of the City of Ottawa. ==Transportation== The community is served by OC Transpo route 157 which supplies morning and evening rush hour connections to Baseline Station. Route 176 runs down Merivale Road, connecting the community to Barrhaven and central Ottawa. Route 199 runs on Prince of Wales and serves people arriving from the east in the morning, and heading to the RCMP headquarters in Barrhaven. Route 116 is a short walk away and links the community to areas east of the Rideau River. The community is a short drive to the Fallowfield railway station served by Via Rail. This can be reached also on foot or by bicycle using the Greenbelt Pathway. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Country Place」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
