City Council Looks At Adding More Bike Lanes

In 2009 the city of Vancouver converted one of the southbound traffic lanes of the Burrard Bridge into a bike only lane. It was started as a six month trial but due to it's huge success city councillors voted to make the separated bike lane permanent. Council is now looking at expanding it's growing number of bike lanes to include heavily used areas along Point Grey Road/Cornwall Ave. and Commercial Drive.

  1. That's great to hear! Our mayor thinks roads are made for cars - end of story!

  2. I am surprised as whenever we travel over the Burrard Street Bridge, there never seems to be a cyclist on the bridge.
