United Boulevard, northbound to Lougheed Highway

This shows the state of the shoulder northbound along United Boulevard from Mary Hill Bypass to Lougheed Highway eastbound on-ramp. New Port Mann Bridge bike lanes connect to this shoulder, which is clearly far too narrow to be safely used as a bike lane. Also, there is a considerable amount of debris on this shoulder (gravel, rocks, glass, and large nails). Video starts at Golden Avenue. Taken March 21, 2015.

Coquitlam River Bridge to United Blvd

This shows a significant problem with cyclist access to the new bike lane on the Maryhill bypass west of the Coquitlam River bridge. The bridge shoulder width is less than one meter and therefore unsafe for use by cyclists. Video was taken while travelling westbound from Port Coquitlam side. Taken March 21, 2015.

Maryhill Bypass old train tunnel

United Blvd sidewalks

Heading eastbound on the north side between King Edward and Brigantine. The question is, can this be used as a temporary gap connector between PM bridge and CVG?
