So, it seems that more than half of the northbound 110 Street bike lanes are covered in windrows. I don't think there was enough snow to have this problem last or the year before, so I'm not sure if the city would actually do anything if I made a 311 report?

Tbh, if all our bike paths could be this good, I’d be happy. Some width is expected to be lost in the winter. This doesn’t seem too brutal

Yeah, I agree, just a minor quibble at the moment. The main concern would be if/when it starts melting into the lane, though... hopefully, they'd take care of it then.

Yes, I'm becoming more convinced as a winter city that when building our infrastructure, the wider two-way lanes are a better choice than one-way lanes as the path continues to narrow with snow accumulation. Or is it just a maintenance issue?

I think it's mainly a design issue with the one-way lanes - too many curves, traffic crossings, raised sections for bus stops, and proximity to the vehicle lanes beside them make it hard to consistently clear the snow down to the pavement.

The final two beams are up on the new pedestrian bridge beside the Rainbow Valley bridge.

Happy Winter BIke to Work Day! Did anyone else make it to Garneau Lamp this morning? There were over a dozen cyclists at the lamp this morning and a couple dozen more I passed by on High Level Bridge.

Regrettably I couldn't make it. Had a Genset Startup this morning

Another reason bike lanes are good. Emergency access. This was Mill Creek MUP between the two south bound connections to Connors Rd. A stalled garbage truck around the bend blocked the whole lane.

Since Lime e-bikes and e-scooters launched in YEG in August of 2019, over half a million riders have taken nearly three million rides, says the company.

All of Edmonton’s riders together have racked up more than six million kilometres, which Lime said was an estimated 720,000 trips away from cars.

We need an ETS run & integrated bike share.

Lime can have novelty scooters. But true micro mobility can’t be Lime.

One of our new neighbourhood multiuse paths has become extra street parking because the city can't be bothered to clear it properly (they also keep closing my 311 requests). Sigh.

311 is about as useless as tits on a bull.
