LETTER: Fan of downtown Canmore pedestrian zone

LETTER: I lived in Canmore for many years and finally had the chance to visit in early October. I want to say how much I and my family enjoyed the downtown pedestrian-only zone.

I lived in Canmore for many years and finally had the chance to visit in early October. I want to say how much I and my family enjoyed the downtown pedestrian-only zone. We'd heard about it but assumed it was a peak-season thing, so we happily partook of some outdoor meals and events – in temperatures that might not typically be considered patio weather – for the novelty of not sharing the space with traffic close by.

Thank you to the Town and the local businesses for keeping this great idea going. It made such a great impression that I almost made it through this letter without thinking about the new Benchlands Trail and Railway Avenue intersection. How very creative.

Still love you, Canmore.

Neil Jones,

Kamloops
