committed to respecting and following any recommendations<\/a> issued by the OCPM. Now, five years later, she’s going back on her word.<\/p>\n\n\n\nClosure of Voie Camillien-Houde will create a number of access issues for seniors, people with reduced mobility, people with health problems, and families. The OCPM also points out in its report that the pilot project to close Voie Camillien-Houde in 2018-2019 led to an increase in automobile traffic on Chemin Remembrance and congestion issues in neighbourhoods<\/strong> adjacent to the mountain<\/strong> (Outremont, C\u00f4te-des-Neiges-Notre-Dame-de-Gr\u00e2ce, Le Plateau-Mont-Royal, Ville-Marie). When it announced its decision on September 13, the Plante administration was unable to guarantee with supporting studies that there would be no traffic redirected into these residential neighbourhoods. As a result, Projet Montr\u00e9al is not solving the safety issues<\/strong>. Their party is creating new ones.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIn Ensemble Montr\u00e9al\u2019s opinion, the Projet Montr\u00e9al administration should respect the consultations in which over 13,000 Montrealers took part, follow the OCPM’s recommendations and keep its word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sign the petition below to ask Montreal Mayor Val\u00e9rie Plante and her administration to reverse their decision, and to quickly make Voie Camillien-Houde safer while guaranteeing ongoing access for all users of the route, as recommended by the OCPM. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n
