More pedestrianized streets for the summer
The city is pedestrianizing a few more pieces of street for the summer months: Ste-Catherine in the Quartier des spectacles (which it seems to me has been closed during major festivals for some years anyway), the avenue du Musée and the Place d’Youville.
Did anything ever happen with the promise to make some of rue Masson pedestrian? It’s not mentioned in this brief article.

There’s a link in the “à ce sujet” section of the article about that project having been abandoned last June.

You’re right. I don’t think those links were there when I noticed the article, but it could be time for new specs for la blogueuse. Thanks.

If I’m not mistaken, the merchants association voted the proposal down. I guess they didn’t read about how pedestrianization has significantly increased business in recent years!

Yes, you’re right, they did. I didn’t totally take in that news because I neither live nor work near enough to Masson for it to be of much practical use to me.
