• Some things you may want to consider when completing the survey:

• For Priorities we suggest:
  • 1. Safety for people should be a higher priority than parking.
  • 2. Ungap the map = A connected network of routes to access all the places safely, quickly, and efficiently for people walking, and people on bikes - at least as connected a network - if not more so - than for people in cars.
  • 3. While the concept of balance is important. The past 100 years of car-focused development and people walking and people riding bikes shunted to small sections of public-right-of-way demonstrates there is a lot of space to be returned to people walking, people on bikes, and transit - than is currently occupied by car & truck use. So true balance, will not hesitate to take space from car & truck use when needed, as we are currently so out-of-balance.

• For Cycling Option Selection we suggest:
  • Our priority selection order is: Options 1, then 2, and then 3.
    • We find option 2 and 3 acceptable, but less desirable. Option 2 requires a safe crossings - perhaps a light at Kilmer. Option 3 on Hoskins is quite steep - so downhill speeds on Hoskins will make cars/trucks exiting driveways with limited visibility (big hedges at or over the property-line) a potentially deadly hazard. For both road options there are a large number of driveways and thus the mobility lanes will be hard to protect.
    • For this reason for Option 1, 2, and 3: Signage on the downhill leg should read every 200 metres: "People on bikes may take the full lane"

E-Bike Share Pilot Program survey

• The City of North Vancouver, District of North Vancouver and District of West Vancouver would like to learn about your experience with the Lime e-bike share pilot program.
  • Link to the Survey now open until Monday, June 19 at 4pm.
• Some points you may want to consider when completing the survey:
  • There is the chance to give feedback about infrastructure that supports bike usage, such as bike lanes and mobility lanes, please encourage them to build more.
  • Adding Cargo bikes to the pilot might be something to consider as well.
