1. The death of an 86-year-old woman who was struck by a dump truck on Rideau Street has refocused attention on an issue that should have been solved long ago.
2. It is unacceptable to have dump trucks and other enormous vehicles rumbling through the downtown streets of any city, which are dense with pedestrians.
3. The problem has been acknowledged for years and attempts have been made to build a bridge that would divert the traffic away from downtown.
4. Either way, the east end needs a bridge -- and fast.
