| 60 % of city urban planning is dedicated to accommodate vehicules. People should use smaller more efficent cars like hybrids. Also, if Montreal was a city "that never sleeps"*, we wouldn't have so many congestions and traffic jam.
*such as 24 hour open business; bank, food, retail, 3 8 hours work shift, etc... |

| Yeah but 24 hour society is still a good 50 years away. |

to get from the mountain to st lau is pretty easy too, you cross parc...go down the stairs...down the street...etc..etc. |

| i totally agree its ridiculous.
at least now it relieves st laurent/st urbains jams to some extent.. watch the whole area become a standing carline |

| Why is it ridiculous ? I don't get it. It's a freaking crossroad. Shesh.... |
|
Coolness: 154780
| its the overpasses that addd character |
|
Coolness: 339770
| that and if you're driving down that (busy) road, you go from 0 traffic lights, to 2. that's not progress... |

| Pedestrian friendly sounds good to me, encourages people to use cars less. Right now that intersection is a death trap for pedestrians. |
|
Coolness: 339770
| causing more traffic encourages people to drive less? i'm guessing you've never been on decarie at 5:00pm on a weekday.. |

| If it's not worth driving, people will seek alternate, cleaner methods of transportation. Personally I take the bus and metro everywhere and I even live in the south shore, and I rarely get slowed down much by traffic. |
