    An ongoing process. Many of the City’s recent initiatives (e.g. downtown separated bike lane trial, additional traffic calming on existing routes) work towards this vision. The draft Greenest City action plan will support this idea, and include directions to help inform the upcoming transportation plan update and new active transportation plan.

    We need to have everyone feel safe getting to and from their destinations. Right now I'm not scared of pedestrians, or bike riders, or even skateboarders, but cars... that's a different matter. When a stressed or disgruntled motorist gets it in in his/her head that they are mad, they can - and do - use their vehicle as muscle power. Its a shame, but those types of drivers are unpredictable as to where they point their machines, if they gun their motor, and decide to serve or go fast. Let them be maniacs if they will, but they should not be able to create a problem or situation where they make it unsafe for anyone else but because they do, then others less "endowed" with that much metal and motor, need to be protected. Thank you's to the City of Vancouver for their help and assistance in making this a safer City.
