No, it was the result of traffic backups reaching Union St. during the LRT construction which redirected a lot of traffic to Westmount.
Of course, that was a temporary situation, but the dangerous situation it created lives on.
In fact, one possible option was restricting turns onto Glasgow, which was opposed by residents of Glasgow St. (And just to clarify this would not remove access to Glasgow, residents could turn at Westwood: https://www.google.ca/maps/dir/43.446098...m2!3e2!5i1)
