    C’est l’entrée et la sortie d’un parc. C’est réservé à ceux qui veulent se rendre au parc.
  2. Veronica Brownstein

    S’il vous plaît, gardez la voie Camillien-Houde OUVERT aux voitures voulant traverser la montagne de Côtes des Neiges à la rue Mont Royal.
  3. Stephen Brownstein
    Je soutiens que les voitures ont libre accès de la voie Camillien Houde.

    My mom and I wanted to visit the mont royal lookout. Leaving from NDG we entered the park from the west. There were no parking spots left. We then tried to go around the mountain to enter from other side and got stuck in absolute gridlock finally reaching the other side 35 minutes later. The whole plan is preposterous and so poorly thought out it amazes me it was even considered.

    Everyone can circulate. It’s a road through the Parc.

    There’s already a pedestrian/bike way that goes through the Parc that cars aren’t allowed to use. That road should also have a bike path for the crazies who go really fast downhill and have nearly hit my kid several times.

    A park road is two things:
    1. gravel path should be open to pedestrians and bikes, but bikes should have a speed limit MUCH slower than what many do now
    2.the paved road should be open to bikes (with bike path marked on most of it)and cars. not pedestrians unless it has a sidewalk.

    The mountain is a wonderful resource for all Montrealers. I have been walking and driving across it for many years. Camillien houde is a great route to get back and forth between different areas of the city and I love taking visitors to Montreal by that route to show them a view of the city.

    I also appreciate that many bicyclists use the same route and that there is some danger to them because of the cars.
    However, I pay at least in much in taxes as do the bicyclists and I suspect that if you add up all the cars that use that route, the taxes paid by the car drivers are much much higher than paid by the bicyclists.

    That is not to say that majorities should not respect the needs of minorities. However, in this case the negative effects on the majority of Montrealers, who undoubtedly want to be able to be able to drive across the mountain, are too great to allow bicyclists to monopolize this road. Make them another path somewhere up the mountain but do not take this road away from the rest of us.

    I feel this decision was not made taking into account the will of the vast majority of the city. And if you doubt that, hold a referendum and see what the prevailing opinion is. Otherwise, the mayor does not have the right to impose her own particular opinion about this on an unwilling population.

    I am 64 years old and have lived in Montreal all my life. Mount Royal (The Mountain) has been present in all the stages of my life, skiing,skating and tobogganing as a child, romantic RDVs, and walks with friends and pets.
    I also use the road that goes across the mountain as a way to go from one side of the city to the other.
    It is an easy and unique way to access the 2 sides of the city that are a part of my heritage and life.
    While we do have to protect cyclists and pedestrians, I believe the way to do it is to put up barriers that prevent motorists from making illegal Uturns and NOT to block the access to motorists.
    Furthermore, I believe that it is a too radical intervention considering the minimal number of cyclists who go over the mountain. Let's face it, it is a small number of all the cyclists in Montreal who have the physical capacity to cycle up the mountain.
    And to block the access and not provide an equivalent alternative is unfair and wrong, especially with all the ongoing road work we Montrealers have to contend with.
    Perhaps those involved in trying to ensure a safer environment on the mountain could try to use a more balances approach - finding a solution which involves cyclists, pedestrians and motorists living in harmony without one having to
    give up something for the sake of the other - "the genius of the AND" instead of "the tyranny of the OR".
    Please listen to what I believe is a majority of Montrealers, and DO NOT proceed with this plan.
    Thank you

    Chemins de parc: tous chemins à l'intérieur et aux abords du parc qui permettent les piétons et cyclistes d'y circuler librement, et qui ne donnent pas accès aux voitures – les chemins qu'on retrouvent dans tous les parcs de Montréal.

    Routes menant au parc: tous le rues qui nous permettent de se rendre aux parcs et aux stationnements des parcs s'il y a lieu. Les voies Remembrance et Camilien Houde sont des voies qui mènent aux parcs et aux stationnements du parcs mais qui ne se trouvent pas à l'intérieur du parc.

    Do not block off this very valuable route. Make it safe for all who use it. That’s all. I’m sure that could be accomplished!
  12. James Hutchinson
    It really should be open to cars again!

    Very few bikers except for elite ones are climbing that mountain road and they know how to share space with automobiles.

    Un chemin de Parc est une voie piétonniere.
  14. Diann Whittaker
    Tous les citoyens de Montréal doivent avoir accès, que ça soit par auto, autobus, bicycle, etc. Comme un homme à la télé a dit, un côté il y a des cimetières et l’autre c’est la montagne alors les vehicles ne détruit pas la montagne. Fait du bien pour les citoyens qui vous à élus!

    Le chemin du parc, c'est Camillien-Houde / Remembrance. Il sert à se rendre à l'endroit choisi de stationnement, même si on est vieux, handicapé ou une grande famille avec l'équipement pour un pique-nique ou des jeux. Il sert aussi comme lien entre l'est et l'ouest de la ville. J'habite le Mile-End, et je prend ce chemin pour aller dans l'ouest de la ville, même si c'est un peu plus long, parce que le bol de nature que je prends, le bien que ça me fait de passer là, me nourrit. J'y conduit lentement, pour prolonger le plaisir. Des fois je m'arrête dans l'un ou l'autre des stationnements pour dessiner, si j'ai le temps. Je suis bien trop vieille pour faire de la bicyclette, et comme des milliers d'autres montréalais, pas tout à fait en forme pour monter à pied,. J'ai l'impression que l'idée de fermer la montagne aux voitures c'est une discrimination contre moi et mes semblables. Même si les autobus arrivaient souvent, ce qui n'est pas le cas, je ne pourrais pas apporter mon lourd attirail de peinture ni mon chien.

    Je suis d'accord avec une limite sévère de la vitesse sur ce chemin. Mais je ne suis pas d'accord qu'il soit fermé.

    Ce parc est un peu particulier. Il a une longue histoire de circulation automobile, contrairement à la plupart des autres parcs montréalais.

    Ce chemin de parc doit être accessible à toutes les populations, y compris les automobilistes.

    Beaucoup de personnes, y compris les personnes âgées, ont besoin de leur véhicule pour circuler à Montréal; et d'autant plus dans ce parc dont l'accès est particulièrement difficile sans voiture. Comme mentionné dans un texte à la chronique «circulation de transit», c'est aussi le seul endroit à Montréal à mon avis où on peut circuler lentement en auto, dans un endroit magnifique et qui prête à retrouver une certaine sérénité en conduisant, comme si nous étions à la campagne. C'est magique et ça fonctionne à chaque fois!

    C'est justement cet aspect chemin de parc qui le permet.
  17. Susyn Borer
    C'est pour les piétons, les cyclistes et les voitures.

    La montagne doit être accessible à tous: cyclistes, piétons, voitures, voire une ligne de bus pour les transports en commun d'un bout à l'autre de la montagne. C’est la seule façon pour elle de servir réellement tout le monde dans la ville. La fermer au milieu est une exclusion et non dans l’intérêt de ses citoyens. Visiter la montagne fait partie intégrante de la joie d'être Montréalais et de vivre à Montréal.

    In regard to the road across Mount Royal, I support it being left open to automobile traffic year long, to avoid the heavy congestion resulting from cars having to find another way to go from west to east or vice versa.
  19. ethna barry
    I think all citizens should have access to the mountain.
    keep the road open so that out-of-city visitors, handicapped persons , families with small children can have access.
    having the road closed prevents people from getting there.
    Keep the access open.

    Hello - I am replying on the French link sent to me by you/email. A "chemin de parc" suggests a "sentier" or a walking path. There are miles of these on Mount Royal. If you are referring to a ROAD with multiple uses or multiple "possible" uses then that is still a "road" as it is constructed to a specific code within the city's construction by-laws. The two are not the same and their uses are different. A sentier/chemin de parc is limited to pedestrian traffic (in the case of Mt-Royal I believe mountain bikes are not permitted but still are used). The wider gravel covered chemin de parc is also accessible to cyclists. The paved road crossing the mountain can accommodate all modes of traffic/transportation.
  21. Gregory Gransden
    I believe the mountain should be re-opened to vehicular traffic. Mt Royal belongs to all Montrealers, not just to cyclists. I believe there should be a protected bicycle lane for cyclists, but that cars should be allowed to circulate freely on the mountain.

    I went to your meeting and listen to the city results.
    1. The drivers were not consulted in this survey, I drive through the mountain because I feel serene. It is a beautiful drive. I have the same rights as the cyclist or walkers.
    2. Camilien Houde does not cross the park but borders the park, same as Parc ave. Pine and cote des neiges.
    3. The residents living around the mountain were not consulted either, if 10,000 cars drove on the mountain they had to reroute around the mountain. I pay extra taxes for living in a privileged area!!! Which becomes congested. What privilege?
    I do walk on the mountain around 5pm in the summer five days per week and noticed a lot less family having a picnic. Where are those people’s rights.
    Therefore 500 bikers a day win over 10,000 drivers, picnickers etc...
    That is not democracy

    Closing the mountain road is the most foolish option possible. Road safety can be achieved with concrete dividers along the road or at intersections in the road.

    What is outrageous is that the driving public is being punished for the fault of one bad driver, many careless bikers ( who should be served by a special lane).

    The road must stay open, both for the convenience of those who want to get to the other side, but also because it is a right that should not be yanked away by arrogant governing bodies.

    Drivers also love the mountain. Drivers in the rest of the downtown love the fact that there is less traffic in their lanes. Give us back the road, as it was.

    Metre fin au project de limiter la circulation des vehicles sur camilian Houde.
    Ce project n est pas la raison que j ai vote pour la mayoress Plante.

    Olmsted is a perfect example of a park road for pedestrians and bikes. Camillien-Houde is a road for cars and should be kept a road for cars (including through traffic) but modified to be also be safely used for people and bikes.
