Technically this MUP is open but the west side entrance has a bumpy letdown. Reminder sent to Justin Hall.

- Signal at 3rd & St Andrews
District of North Vancouver - Don/Ryan
- 1st Avenue West
- Parking protected bike lane once. Treatment plant construction allows. Will be coordinated with City design.
- LV rd & E 29th
- Considered Qwick Kurb as well as cast in place concrete curbs similar to Beatty Street in Vancouver, but too expensive.
