Opinion: A bridge over McCartney Creek is the most important Spirit Trail piece

It will be costly, but completing this portion of the North Vancouver trail will make things safer for school kids, seniors, strollers, cyclists, wheelchairs....

The next North Shore Celebration Station will be near the Ambleside Park entrance tomorrow (Wednesday, Oct 1st).

The Marine Drive multi-use path construction now has some pavement. Photos taken yesterday near the Lions Gate Bridge exit (west end of the project).

Multi-use path construction. Path has been paved, but road next to the path requires pavement. Looking east along Marine Drive from near the north end of the Lions Gate Bridge.

The Stanley Park Mobility Study has been released, and the VULC is quite disappointed at its contents. While we support improving bus service in the park, nothing in the report will make cycling safer or more accessible in the near future. #bikeyvr 1/8

After 3 years, the Stanley Park Mobility Study has been released. You can read it here: parkboardmeetings.vancouver.ca/2025/2025091...

It is very, very underwhelming. A return of a separated bike lane is contemplated, but not specifically recommended, in the 7-15 year timeframe.

The hill up Windridge Drive is quite steep, but is quieter than the route along Mount Seymour Parkway.

A the top of Windridge hill, the choice is to connect back to Mount Seymour Parkway or to use a small trail that connects to Berkley Road.

Project ends at Berkley Road at the Recreation Centre. Sign says "Temporay End of Trail".

I checked out the first part of the Spirit Trail East extension from Seymour River to Windridge Park last weekend. The trail mostly uses existing side streets: starting on Heritage Park Lane and continuing on Windridge Drive.
