Vehicle plows into crowd on Bourbon St., with 14 fatalities

Regarding barriers. The fact they weren't in use due to upgrades really doesn't seem to factor. The sidewalks would still be vulnerable, I believe (unless I'm missing something about the design). But, I think moving forward, the Quarter should absolutely put barriers at the curbs/sidewalk.
he went on sidewalk at first (going around squad car), but he had 3 blocks of unobstructed driving correct?
and while i'm certainly in the camp to make (most of) The Quarter a pedestrian zone, not sure I want bollards on the sidewalk as well - for whatever reason that feels like it creates more problems than it solves
