Dear Editor:
As a recent new resident to North Vancouver and an avid cyclist, I appreciate the new and improved bike lanes on the Ironworkers Memorial (Second Narrows Crossing).
This will facilitate a significant easing of anxiety for both cyclists and pedestrians as they make the crossing.
Once again the Metro Vancouver area shows forward thinking for alternative/active transportation — one of the many reasons I moved to this area. I do have one small negative point. I am disappointed that the fence does significantly reduce the view of the inlet. I agree with (MP Jane) Thornthwaite that drivers should concentrate on the road, but when stuck in the inevitable traffic jams on the bridge it is somewhat soothing to look out over the beautiful vistas. It lowers the blood pressure.
