Existing Conditions Possible Realignment

Pedestrians have to make up to 5 crossings to get from one side of Burrard St to the other at this intersection Pedestrians would have shorter and fewer crossings

Cyclists have to make multiple crossings to get from one side of Burrard St to the other at this intersection

Pedestrians have to make 3 crossings to get from one side of Cornwall Ave to the other at this intersection Pedestrians would have shorter wait times to cross the intersection

Cyclists have to make multiple crossings to get from one side of Cornwall Ave to the other at this intersection

Direct access between Burrard Bridge to/from Cornwall Ave and Burrard St Maintain the same number of lanes on and off the bridge and maintain all motor vehicle movementsBusy bus route Simplifi ed intersection confi guration

Better signal visibility

Lengthy wait times given the signal operation and delays between individual legs of the intersection Separated marked crossings for pedestrians and cyclistsBikes on the crosswalks More green space

Cyclists and pedestrians share the same crosswalks Cyclists would have shorter and fewer separated marked bike crossings
