The shrouds were removed from the brand new walk signals at the intersection of Portage and Main on Friday morning and the remaining construction barricades hauled away, as 46 years of prohibited pedestrian crossings came to an end at Winnipeg's famous corner.
"This is very, very special today. Today marks a historic moment," said Mayor Scott Gillingham, as a pedestrian walk light in the background turned on for one of the first times around 10:30 a.m. and a stream of people began crossing Main Street.
"This intersection is important. It has been central to Winnipeg's history. It will remain vital to our community's future."
