Why calm Park Avenue?

  1. The problem:

    A dangerous street

    Since 2013 at least 14 people have been killed on Park Avenue and at its intersections. Every day, vulnerable people are exposed to long pedestrian crossings, fast turning cars and fragile bike links.

  2. The solution:

    Traffic calming

    Reduce speeds, shorten crossings, make intersections predictable and give more space to walking, cycling and transit.

  3. The benefits:

    A busier street

    A traffic-calmed street draws more people: they linger, local shops benefit and neighbourhood life takes up more space.

Count me in!

Together, let’s transform our neighbourhoods and reinvent this artery between Jean-Talon and Sherbrooke so that it’s a liveable place that everyone can enjoy
