This is a bit of good news for la ville de Québec urbanism, especially after the shitstorm surrounding "le troisième lien" (French Wikipedia link, can't be bothered to find an English source but essentially the provincial government was trying to force the building of a car-centric tunnel between Québec and Lévis and were forced to backpedal into making it exclusive to public transit due to various studies/public outcry).

I was in Lévis recently and tried walking from our hotel to the campus our event was hosted. I was basically walking along a half-meter wide sidewalk on a 6 lane highway with cars going near 100km/h. I felt like I was an intruder on an alien planet.

Hé M. Marchand, peut-être qu'on aurait besoin d'une guerre contre les chars?

I would love to see something like this get implemented here in Memphis but I could only dream. Memphis, even with its liberal reputation, is truck country. Add in the fact that Fedex and Autozone are headquartered here and Ford is building an EV factory right next door. I guess I'm going to brush up on my high school French and move to Quebec.
