10 Montreal streets are going pedestrian-only this summer

Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante has announced that 10 streets in the city will be pedestrian-only this summer. This follows last year’s investment of $12-million for the pedestrianization of Montreal commercial arteries over a three-year period.

“Pedestrian streets have become a signature of the Montreal summer and a symbol of the dynamism of our commercial arteries. Each year, pedestrianization attracts thousands of families and visitors, from here and elsewhere, to our commercial arteries, thus contributing to the economic vitality of the districts. I invite the people of Montreal to take ownership of these new public places that reflect the creativity, beauty and vitality of our city.”
