District of West Vancouver - Paul/Peter/Mike
- Bike to shop day on 7 August
- Don and I volunteered at the both set up by HUB, located at the atrium in Park Royal South which was not a location attractive for people on bicycles.
- Don and I invited passing pedestrians to the booth and we counted over 100.
- Only two cyclists showed up at the booth and it was at the end of the 2-hour period.
- Apparently ADBI had been approached to participate but did want to pay the participation fees to HUB.
- 26 August phone call with Jenn Moller, director of Engineering and Transportation
- Ciclovia
- West Vancouver Active Family Day on Sunday, 26 September may not occur as planned due to concerns expressed by ADBI about their responsibility in organizing and paying for the event.
- Jenn has canvassed interested parties for a 30-minute meeting with ADBIA next week.
- I sense a concern about who will fund the event - Jenn says she is willing to contribute $12,00 but doesn't have the money in her budget.
- It seems likely to me that the event will be postponed until next spring.
- Lack of bike racks in Ambleside parks
- In response to the photo of 23 bikes strewn over the lawn in John Lawson Park, Jenn said that there was a 2020 plan for bike racks in the parks but it didn't happen due to COVID-19.
- Plans for bike lanes on Westmount Road
- Jenn is awaiting grant funding and HUB-NS comments - I said that I was generally pleased with the engineer drawings.
- I have briefly discussed with Paul recommending speed pillows instead of speed humps on the route. I really like the ones recently installed on Roosevelt Cres east of Pemberton in DNV (http://wiki.bikehub.ca/northshore/index.php?title=File:Speed_pillows_on_Roosevelt_Cres_2021-08-20_IMG_3478.jpg).
- Ciclovia
- DWV Capital Planning
- Jenn said her deadline for input is the end of September and she would like to meet with us before then to discuss her input.
- Strategic Transportation plan update
- Preparation is behind schedule and it is planned to have technical conditions and milestones for the project by the end of August.
- The timing for consulting with stakeholders has not yet been determined.
- Protected bike lane on Marine Drive east of the LGB
- DNV has the lead on this project and DWV will provide input with the project due for completion in 2022.
- Lime bike share
- Implementation issues in North Van have delayed setting up in West Van.
MOTI - Don/Jonathan

- 4m MUP along the north side westbound Mtn Hwy offramp will have 10 "refuges", so the hill will be a series of 10m 15% pitches with 2m flats (refuge). Should open in mid-Sep.

- Mt Seymour parkway/Keith Interchange
- bike detour in place until Mid-sept (to demolish old bridge and complete south side of new one)
