Not sure if folks have ridden on the Central Valley Greenway. A good idea. Much of the route is dedicated MUP. But there are also a few head-scratches. The worse of them all in my opinion is at Burnaby by the Sperling Skytrain stn. They've now built a bridge across Winston St. so that riders ride over the street below and railway track. However eastbound riders would have to later cross Winston St. in order to resume the riding at the right side of the road. There are cars and trucks travelling on Winston. Unlike Main St. which is always congested, an autombile can travel pretty fast on Winston.
So crossing the street even its is marked as a crossing path is dangerous! The signs are small, no lights whatsoever. It is an accident waiting to happen.
