Poorly planned system. It's like nothing beyond the busway crossed there mind. At least in Ottawa the Regional government invested in pedestrian bridges and tunnels where necessary to better connect with communities and landmarks. Just seems like a safe, pleasant, well lit pedestrian connection to a huge investment like the Centre Multifonctionnel would be an obvious priority.

It's great to have a bunch of different projects (Rapibus, Centre Multifonctionnel, Destination Gatineau...) but you need a way to build a relationship between them.
