Some streets, or street segments, are configured for pedestrians only year-round, while others become temporary pedestrian streets during the summer months. In order to make these streets safer and more pleasant, various elements may be integrated. These include benches, plants, lighting, etc.  

Such configurations allow for public areas to be shared more efficiently, for enhanced pedestrian safety and comfort, and contribute to the city’s vitality. Pedestrian streets improve the quality of life in our neighbourhoods and encourage local purchases.
