That time Winnipeg closed Portage and Main to pedestrians - From the archives 1979

Do you have Archives news of portage and main (city crossing competition of 2003) I would love to see that

Dundas square Toronto. All traffic stops. Pedestrian can cross all corners like a square or a cross like an x. Dundas Square is super busy with pedestrians and cars. I've seen it work well. Small city can do it too.

I wouldn’t describe Winnipeg as a small city 💀 not a big one but def not small

If I recall, when I was in another very busy city, Jakarta, Indonesia, they have that too.
