Highway 1 might get a section of MUP parallel to it after the improvements (read widening) are done in phase 3.

Old and New Pattullo Bridges

Being on the sidewalk there is not great: it's narrow and is only separated by a curb. The whole structure shakes a lot. No wonder I didn't meet anyone there. Yet it's a part of BC Parkway, regional β€œgreenway”.

One one hand, I'm glad it's being replaced with a new bridge, on the other it's just another piece of car infra the province spends most of the transportation budget on.

These mountains are called the "Golden Ears" but are more officially named as Mount Blanshard. A familiar sight to anyone around the Metro area, I've made a lot of of this mountain. A few more views of Blanshard on my post here:

It’s estimated that one elevated light-rail Skytrain transit line in Metro Vancouver replaces between 20 & 26 lanes of freeway vehicle traffic! And then consider the amount of PARKING that it replaces, how much pollution & GHG emissions it reduces, how much public cost it avoids.

in right now. Traffic completely stopped on three major bridges crossing the Fraser River since 3pm today. People have been stuck on the highways in their cars for 10 hours with no food, water or remediation in sight
