Upgrades to Traffic junctions! Corporation needs to get rid of that monstrosity jutting out in the damn road coming off Burnaby Hill. A resturant outdoor monstrosity! I cant stand u people who make the stupidist decisions. Roads narrow, no where to park as it is, and one cant even walk on the street let alone drive these days! SMH. Pretty soon we will be walking in the middle of the streets because of these monstrosities!

Sickening to see!

Can you please explain how narrowing the junctions have made traffic flow better?
There are many cases now where the car at the front of the light may be turning but unable to do so with the oncoming flow and has to race across when the light turns red, meanwhile holding up all the traffic behind them.
This is very frustrating for drivers and often you will get several cars racing across on the red light.

No street parking will be lost. Street parking in that area is $2.00 per hour, same as the City parking lots, except for Elliott Street and Bull’s Head which are $5.00 per DAY.

I do hope the sidewalk “refurbishment” does not include the replacing of paving stones with those uneven “marble” type. They are very dangerous to walk on and even wearing flat shoes, you risk turning your ankle on them.

They are all over the city and are dangerous for seniors, particularly.

Does refurbishment mean the continued narrowing of junctions and extension of sidewalks to reduce street parking and force parking in more expensive locations?

The sooner CoH gets transferred to the Government the better.
