Winnipeg is looking for a private company to come up with a plan to open Portage and Main to foot traffic.

A request for proposals for a transportation study has opened on the city’s bid website.

The tender requires options for pedestrian crossings on three or four legs of the iconic intersection.

It also asks for the winning bidder to provide risks associated with each option.

Up to 77,000 vehicles travel through Portage and Main daily.
