I sorta wish that sign a top the brewery could have remained.

No sign is so sad. And this road is still brutal. Would love if they continued the trees from south of 104ave all the way up!

What is so brutal about this road, @thommyjo - 121 St north of 104 Ave now has bike paths on both sides and the street parking has switched from angle to parallel. That empty site north of the brewery is screaming for development. As for trees, let's wait and observe how the current greenery grows.

That street should have mirrored things from south of 104.

Alas.

The road will be much better when the Valley Line goes down it! (That's the road where the lrt will go, right?)

No that's 90 degrees to this road -- 104th Avenue is the LRT route (behind the camera location).

Gotcha, thanks. I thought the site looked a bit off from the LRT renderings. Hopefully the bike lanes can be brought further south like Ian said!

Painted bike gutters with parking in the inside is like "how to hurt cyclists and make the lanes not be used" 101.

The parking should be between traffic and the lanes, so bikers are protected from driver doors and moving vehicles. Then trees in the middle or on sides would continue north the beauty thats south of 104ave.

Just too bad this road didn't get updated amongst all the construction the last few years. Maybe once the LRT passes they'll install proper bike lanes!

Top is what we currently have. Its dangerous. The lower on the right shows what should be built. I'm sure they'll upgrade it alongside the LRT or right after.
