Commercial vacancy is currently at about 19% in Winnipeg. The businesses from the concourse will either close shop or find a new location, not any different than any other business.
When asking questions like this, it helps to understand that this is not normal, it's actually an anomaly. All you have to do is look at literally any other intersection to see how businesses, vehicles, and pedestrians all get along.
Again, the existing situation is the anomaly, not the other way around. Solutions exist for any question that'll come out of this exercise to correct the abomination that is the closing of P+M.
