As this is going to be a continuing topic, I decided to create a thread for the Complete Street Policy.
Next up on the City's agenda is Georgia Gateway West:

Quote:
Georgia Street is an important gateway into Vancouver. Every day, it welcomes thousands of people into the city for work, to visit, and to and from Stanley Park. It also connects people to three neighbourhoods – the West End, Coal Harbour and Downtown.
But traffic can be a challenge for people driving and taking transit, and the street can be uninviting for people walking and cycling.
We are beginning a transportation planning process for Georgia Street, from Chilco St to Nicola St. We want to explore how to make Georgia a Complete Street that welcomes people of all ages, abilities, and modes of travel.
We are looking for solutions that will:- Improve safety along Georgia Street
- Make sustainable travel choices more reliable, comfortable, and enjoyable
- Enhance walking and cycling connections to Stanley Park, West End, Coal Harbour, and Downtown
- Ensure access to and from homes and businesses
- Celebrate Georgia Street as a gateway to the city
- Make Georgia Street a more clear and predictable street
