Curbs being placed during road work for a protected bike lane

The 103 Ave detour due to LRT construction will have protected bike lanes. I donโ€™t know if theyโ€™ll be permanent but itโ€™d be a pity to rip these up. #yegbike

Tuesday's letters: Bike lane on 132 Avenue an asset Edmonton Journal readers have their say on west coast tanker ban, Evan Li, bike lanes and more.

โ€œThe city has done a great job maximizing the space by building the bike lanes. In Westmount where I live, we also have numerous bike lanes and once they were built, most of the residents got used to them and the bike traffic increased considerably.โ€ ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ YES!

Warehouse Park, other incentives spur up to 1,800 housing units downtown Several developers say the "black hole" created by the many surface parking lots that surround Warehouse Park downtown is finally set to change, with up to 1,800 housing units proposed.

Urbanist nerds will likely enjoy this one: What's the latest trend in downtown housing development in Edmonton? Downsizing. And seeing the future park as the major catalyst and amenity that will attract new residents.
