Montreal’s Fullum, Parthenais and De Rouen to become one-way streets
With several schools in the area, people’s frustrations with high traffic have reached their limit and they showed their anger to city officials.
“Cars stink, kill and pollute” shouted an angry resident at the mayor as he interrupted her press conference announcing traffic-calming measures.“We’re in a climate emergency and you’re talking about one-way streets after a seven-year-old kid is killed? That’s what you come with?” the man said.“We could drive anywhere else, what difference does it make if it’s this street?” Sousa said while driving on Parthenais Street.
Plante says the measures will be implemented during the summer break and will be ready in time for back to school.Other initiatives such as speed bumps and the widening of sidewalks will be added throughout the course of the year.
