**On the 5th page, '''Ross Rd to E 27th Street''' regarding the - Bikelane southbound + MUP northbound |
|||
***The Bikelanes should be protected where possible. Plastic posts in the buffer on segments without Driveways, and the Upper Lynn Valley Rd design where there are driveways. |
|||
***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 Bike lanes need to be extended all the way past Ross Rd 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. In our comments we noted that this was a 'false choice' and requested both. A direct, but busy route for the confident people on bikes - especially on the downhill. The quieter route is important for the less confident people on bikes (“Interested but concerned”) |
|||
*** We recommend selecting Option 1 in the choices, since that is all that is allowed by the choices. Some additional comments: |
|||
***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 Appin, up 20th, along Viewlynn to E27th. This would provide an alternative, quiet neighbourhood bikeway all the way to Lynn Valley Town Centre. |
