Wide sidewalks, more pedestrian spaces planned for Jasper Avenue

Shawn Wells read the posters closely and traced the maps with his fingers.
“I’m not happy,” he said Thursday.
Wells, who works a lot downtown, was one of the visitors at Jasper Avenue’s New Vision open house, hosted at CKUA Radio, 9808 Jasper Ave.
He said he did not like the idea of narrowing streets and taking away parking.
“My big thing is that changes like this are punishments to motorists,” he said.
City officials envision Jasper Avenue between 96 and 100
