Mary Hill Bypass RFP

There are RFPs for a flyover to get left turning traffic from Mary Hill Bypass onto Shaughnessy in PoCo RFP is on hold in advance of actually receiving the proposals.

PoMo chicanes

Andrew checked them out.

Bi-directional bike lane near Christmas Way

Coquitlam did RFP for bi directional bike lane on Lougheed near Christmas Way, rather than waiting for the Marcon development.
