Thanks to Josh for recording minutes |

1. Bike to work: |
|||
Discussion of Port Coquitlam station. Would have to be led by local committee. Action item: Josh will approach CAPs. |
|||
Location? City Hall, Red bridge, CMO/Lougheed. No ideal location. Probably maximum traffic near city hall. |
|||
2. Mark Halpin from the City of Port Moody |
|||
Mark presented plans for the following new infrastructure: |
|||
-Plans for an on-street bike lane on Ungless Way (2014). |
|||
-Plans for on-street bike lanes for Heritage Mtn Blvd (2014). |
|||
-Plans for an off-street bike path on Murray St between the bridge and Electronic Avenue (2015). |
|||
-There is ongoing discussion of piggybacking a MUP along the Evergreen line parallel to the train tracks. This would replace the rather dodgy route along Spring street. |
|||
Feedback was provided to Mark regarding possible designs for Ungless and Heritage routes. |
|||
Andrew and Simon agreed to do an assessment ride to investigate the Ungless Way and Heritage mountain routes. Report is here: http://wiki.bikehub.ca/committees/index.php?title=HUB_Tri-Cities_Inspection_Ride_Reports |
