Bulges are used often to slow vehicle traffic on neighbourhood roads, but it was the added touch of cut-throughs and paved lanes that allow cycling traffic to maintain its speed and flow that caught my attention. These occured on the shared road where bikes and cars seem to have equal status (Click on smaller photos to enlarge).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1245\/1101855452_f60b2ebab6.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/spacing\/1101004949\/in\/set-72157601351156622\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" align=\"right\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1289\/1101004949_1a5b65d9e4_m.jpg\" \/><\/a> Another fantastic feature that Vancouver has recently initiated is the closing of the short end of city blocks. These closings occur repeatedly along the same street and create a small but attractive greenway. In the examples shown (above, right, and below), the former street has been narrowed significantly and an interlocked-brick path has been built for pedestrians and cyclists. But the city has gone beyond the functional aspect of traffic calming by creating parks and gardens along these paths. This is a classic example of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pps.org\/info\/bulletin\/what_is_placemaking\">placemaking<\/a>: by turning a place that was once used almost exclusively for traffic, the city has transformed these spaces into places to stop, rest and appreciate the surrounding greenery. The park also provides local residents with the opportunity to take part in community gardening (these sites have signs encouraging residents to take ownership of the spaces).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1082\/1101859796_d1403db75d.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1360\/1074748555_e54a166fbd.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/spacing\/1074756629\/in\/set-72157601351259372\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1359\/1074756629_ea1bb05f88_m.jpg\" \/><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/spacing\/1074748555\/in\/set-72157601351259372\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1027\/1075611892_3e9ae17a43_m.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Roundabouts have replaced 4-way stop signs in a number of areas of the city. I&#8217;m undecided on whether I like roundabouts &#8212; in Toronto I appreciate them more for their quirkiness (we have no more than 10 in the city, I&#8217;ve been told) than for their effectiveness at calming traffic. Though, riding my bike through a roundabout intersection, especially one at the end of a downward hill, has been a little nerve-racking. I know that roundabouts are one of the worst things for pedestrians because no one is forced to stop for them, but luckily in Vancouver the drivers seem to have a lot of respect for those of us on foot (even on major streets, when I wasn&#8217;t even at a street corner, cars would stop to let me cross).<\/p>\n<p>Aesthetically, the roundabouts are wonderful additions to the streetscape. Vancouver&#8217;s engineering services department constructs the roundabout and installs the initial plantings. Once the the vegetation takes root, the City offers it up to local residents to maintain (photo below).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1267\/1101860914_ccb056ee4b.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1356\/1120977659_dbdc918222.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Probably the one project in Vancouver that excited me the most was the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.best.bc.ca\/programsAndServices\/greenway\/index.html\">Central Valley Greenway<\/a> (photo above and below). The over-arching goal of the CVG is to link downtown Vancouver with the suburban communities of Burnaby and New Westminster. The greenway will be finished in 2008 and run for 25km &#8212; about the same distance in Toronto between Finch and Union subway stations.<\/p>\n<p>The CVG runs alongside the SkyTrain route and other railroad tracks. A number of streets that ran beside the rail corridor have been eliminated and\/or converted into parkettes and spacious bike lanes. At different intervals, roads become a part of the network, but each one is a local road and produces very little vehicular traffic.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s also interesting about the project is the partners involved: working with the city governments of Vancouver, Burnaby and New Westminster are TransLink and Transport Canada. TransLink is the regional transit provider and is one of the few (maybe the only?) transit authority in North America that is mandated to consider multi-modal forms of transportation. If things operated similarly in Toronto, the TTC, roads and cycling departments would operate under the same umbrella and we&#8217;d probably end up with planning strategies that would support streetcar right-of-ways <em>and<\/em> bike lanes. Transport Canada&#8217;s involvement is paying $15-million of the project&#8217;s $17-million budget out the federal government&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tc.gc.ca\/Programs\/Environment\/utsp\/menu.htm\">Transportation Showcase Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1012\/898996003_2cf1cdcd27.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>above photo by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/daveho\/\">David Hohenschau<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1308\/1144842721_41524dd970.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Gastown is a neighbourhood that is being gentrified at a rapid pace &#8212; it also happens to butt up against the heart of Vancouver&#8217;s fabled East Side, where a large population of drug users and the city&#8217;s transient community reside. Just a few blocks away from <a href=\"http:\/\/flickr.com\/photos\/robinthom\/259365385\/\">Pigeon Park<\/a> (another landmark of the East Side) is the intersection of <a href=\"http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps?f=q&#038;hl=en&#038;geocode=&#038;q=Carrall+and+Water,+vancouver&#038;sll=49.26049,-123.11394&#038;sspn=0.080325,0.186081&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;z=16&#038;iwloc=addr&#038;om=1\">Carrall, Alexander, Powell and Water streets<\/a>. It&#8217;s an interesting experiment in the naked streets concept: all signals have been removed, as well as the edges of sidewalks which now blend seamlessly into the road. In this case, the road is cobbled giving the area an instant historic feel. Bollards and chains keep pedestrians from wandering into oncoming vehicle traffic, but cars slow right down when cruising through the area &#8212; the change in surface does not encourage speeding and indicates to drivers that this is not an ordinary road. Pedestrians cross the street at will and seem to dominate the area. I believe a similar concept is proposed for the Front Street entrance to Union Station in Toronto.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm2.static.flickr.com\/1375\/1145681884_bc85705764.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>all photos by Matthew Blackett, except where noted<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VANCOUVER &#8212; Riding my bike through Vancouver has made me aware of some of the traffic calming features the city has added.
