Woman in bad shape after car hit
A young woman was hit by a car late Saturday evening on St-Denis near Duluth and is in critical condition. She had apparently jaywalked between intersections and no blame is being attached to the driver.

I truly believe that the driver is not at fault. It may very well be the pedestrian’s fault. But still, that street desperately needs to narrow down the number of lanes. In 2020 it is not reasonable for a big city that claims to be pedestrian friendly to have one of it’s north and south most popular street to have 6 lanes for car. 2 for parking and 4 for traffic. It’s time to narrow it down to 4 lanes maximum and reduce the speed of traffic.

With SteveQ when you get past Rosemont blvd. St. Denis looks like a runway.

@Jack what do you mean? What does a “runway” look like that’s any different from St-Denis on either side of Rosemont? (And when you say “past Rosemont” do you mean north of Rosemont or south of Rosemont?)
