The City of North Vancouver unveiled concept plans for the next phase of the Green Necklace trail system at an open house on Oct. 20.
The new section extends eastbound along East Keith Road, from St. Andrews to Grand Boulevard, and north to 19th Street.
During the next open house, scheduled for early 2016, staff will present revised design plans based on feedback gathered from the open house, online questionnaires and other stakeholder meetings.
The concept includes: adding a multi-use path for pedestrians and family cyclists on the north side of Keith Road; adding on-street bike lanes and traffic measures along Keith Road; adding separated single-direction bike paths on the perimeter of Grand Boulevard Park; adding shared crossings for pedestrians and cyclists; upgrading lighting at road intersections; adding street trees along the bike paths, and maintaining and enhancing the existing central pedestrian path.
