After months of repair work, Vancouver's Maple Tree Square in Gastown is being reopened. The square will be open to pedestrians and cyclists only until the end of August.

“As we transition from construction to the pilot, Maple Tree Square is now fully open to pedestrians and cyclists but will remain closed to vehicles to allow visitors a safe and comfortable environment to enjoy the neighbourhood, take in performances, shop, and dine in the heart of Gastown,” city staff said in a release.

Previously, businesses in the area said they were losing out on millions of dollars in revenue due to the repair work. With Water Street turning into a car-free area during the summer months, businesses said they understand it will be good for tourism business, but worry the lack of parking will prevent locals from shopping in the neighbourhood.
