Our politicians should know that each time a cyclist lands in the ER with a smashed face or is struck and killed by a truck, it’s due to bad infrastructure
Like a full-on, “no cyclists allowed” highway? 401? 404? etc.? (EDIT: just seeing that this is for Vancouver… the highways I listed are near Toronto).
There are plenty of alternatives to those highways (which are illegal to cycle on), but I agree that there needs to be way more infrastructure for long distance, municipality to municipality cycling.

There are stretches of Highway 1 in North Van that allows cyclists. Personally I wouldn’t, but it’s not illegal
