Thanks, Otto. The link is especially relevant because it essentially links four different points with one bridge. Im planning on creating a design that can link three or more of the citys proposed locations with one bridge.

I find this really interesting! I was surveyed about the pedestrian and traffic issue at McGill and Summit, and its exciting to think that there may be some developments in the near future. I will keep an eye on your blog to keep updated on this issue. Could be a shorter (and safer) walk to work soon!
