Mont-Royal and Duluth to become pedestrian streets earlier than usual in 2023

Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante announced today that Mont-Royal and Duluth avenues will become pedestrian streets earlier than usual for the summer season. Fans of street fairs and block parties can start flocking to the Plateau as early as May 20, when the sprawling Mont-Royal Avenue gets closed off to cars, and gather on Duluth as of June 19, when that cozier avenue gets pedestrianized.

“Good news! Mont-Royal and Duluth avenues will be pedestrianized earlier (than usual) this year: Mont-Royal starting May 20 and Duluth starting June 19. A pedestrian street is a safer, more lively street where businesses are more dynamic!”

Bonne nouvelle! Les avenues du Mont-Royal et Duluth seront piétonnes plus tôt cette année :

Mont-Royal : dès le 20 mai
Duluth : dès le 19 juin

Une rue piétonne, c’est une rue plus sécuritaire, vivante et où les commerces sont plus dynamiques!#polmtl https://t.co/M2uOleEA14
