**On the 5th page, '''Ross Rd to E 27th Street''' regarding the - Bikelane southbound + MUP northbound
<!--*** (See image at right).[[File:RossRd-27th.png|thumb]]-->
***Add protection (buffer+ posts) between traffic lanes and bike/multi-user paths on both sides, Narrow the traffic lanes to slow traffic speeds and provide buffer.
**** The large the number of driveway on this section is similar to E29th and upper Lynn Valley Road and this will preclude full protection, So I expect they use the Upper LV Rd design, (Barrier at start of block and them just paint.
***Prefer to see a sidewalk plus a separate protected bike lane on the East side. Busy Multi-User Paths not comfortable for either people walking or on bikes - especially with the continued growth of ebikes.
***The end of the bike lane before Ross road - dumping people on bikes into a right turn lane for cars must be fixed on this section.
***The Bike lanes need to be extended all the way to Ross Rd and beyond up to join the existing bike lanes on Lynn Valley Road, Otherwise there will be a one block "Gap" that is not comfortable for most people on Bikes.
**'''Whiteley Crt to E18th''' -
***Option 1 provides more comfort for both people walking and on bikes. Ensure the bikes lanes are wide enough to allow passing.
***On block or segments with no driveways the Bikelanes on the west side should be protected with plastic posts in the buffer. (North & south of 24th, power line crossing, ...)
***On segments with driveways the west side bikelanes should use the Upper Lynn Valley design.
**'''East 18th Street to Arborlynn Drive'''
*** We think both should be implemented - and at the very least - 14th to 18th requires protected bike lanes. Thank you for including the alternate route in your plans - a neighbourhood bikeway is an excellent option for this route.
***Option 1 - Mtn Hwy - slightly less steep, but next to heavy traffic
****Ensure the bikelanes are protected from traffic, and with concrete barriers at the sharp corners
****The bikelanes should be wide enough to permit passing, especially uphill.
***Option 2 - Neignbourhood bikeway on E18th, Appin, Arbourlynn - bit steeper, much quieter.
****Protected bikelanes on both sides of Arbourlynn with separated sidewalk. Busy Multi-User Paths are not comfortable for people walking or on bikes. Bi-directional bike paths on one side of bi-directional streets are a well known hazard.
****Consider a connection along Alpin, up 20th, along Viewlynn to E27th. This would provide an alternative quiet neighbourhood bikeway all the way to Lynn Valley Town Centre.
