Vancouver is Home to World's Worst Bike Lane Design
Unless this was purposely created to kill cyclists, this is the most criminally stupid bike lane design I have ever encountered:
Keep in mind that all of this is happening on a fairly steep downhill grade in a city that gets a lot of rain.
(Un)Fairly Happy.
Regarding a proposed high-speed transit line along Broadway in Vancouver, one resident complains:

2012
2012 has been a great year for Citylab. I've had the honour of working with many great NGOs, home owners and small businesses - all told an excellent group of clients, thank you all. I am also honoured to have been able to work with Peter Stewart Carpentry this year. His team built the lion's share of the residential and commercial work Citylab was involved in. Thanks, Pete.
On the social media front, Citylab's presence and network continues to grow and to all of those who've visited the site and followed Citylab on Twitter I hope you've had as good a year as I did. Unless you were arguing with me about historicism or bike lanes or something, then I hope you are plagued by hangnails.
Cheers and the best to you for 2013.
