    Thanks for the additional info Paul. I quite liked the Olympic Line streetcar so I'm pleased to know that the median supports future streetcar infrastructure. Good to know that the bike lanes are getting additional paint as well.

    The City recently began implementing 30-km/h speed limits on local street bikeways.

    Other measures may require changes to provincial legislation. In these cases, the City’s role will be to advocate for appropriate changes to the legislative framework around cycling.

    The "Idaho stop" philosophy of proceeding through intersections safely without completely losing momentum should be adopted here. I'm dismayed by the amount of Vancouver law enforcement resources deployed to ticket cyclists on marked bike routes under motor vehicle statutes. It sadly doesn't equate to rider education, instead it fuels frustration and antagonism between cyclists and law enforcement.
