Is anyone familiar with what the iron workers memorial bridge foot/bike path is like in the winter? My new work commute goes over the bridge and I’m wondering if it is viable in the snow or if I should budget for having a car by then. Also the state of the trans canada trail from where it meets the bridge to willingdon would affect my planning. I have heard snow on the roads is poorly managed in Burnaby and I don’t like biking on them to bevin with so I’m a bit worried. The north van side I have already seen and its a mixed bag of both excellent and awful. Maybe its a city and district difference but I’ve seen atv plows clearing bike lanes and other parts where the bike lane has snow above my head height. I have a second bike configured for snow and with mid drive electric motor now.
thanks that’s really helpful. I’m not super worried about the ice because I have a stupidly steep hill to my house that actually requires the 52t gear with the mid motor to get up and the studs make an unwalkable hill bikable up and down. Some specific snow conditions are not happening though. I never thought to use the street cams either so I’ll be doing that for sure.
