Arnold said widening such overpasses is possible, but not in the plans today.

“There is room to do additional width on Fifth Street. Seventh and Eighth have the potential for extra width. It’s about where does it make sense,” he said. “If the city says, ‘We’d like to do this,’ we can find ways to allow for it in the future.”

What a load of crap. 4 billion plus but we can't do this? Carries 2+% of GDP but we can't make it so it works for the city?

Next spring, Air Canada will establish a nonstop flight to Montreal, the largest city in the Canadian province of Quebec, starting May 22.
