Misplaced this in the Ikea Thread
The Polo Park area would benefit (greatly) from a package of improvements that focuses on adding left turn lanes where possible, especially on empress Street where it should be possible to widen the road (with retaining walls) and squeeze in the left turn lanes.
I would also suggest that the owners of the Polo Park Mall should look into reconfiguring their parking lot, mainly the roads and intersections on the property, so that intersections, roadways are easy to navigate. I realize this would cost some money, but it would sure improve safety on busy shopping days. Coquitlam Centre Shopping Mall in BC did this a few years back, and it improved things greatly (except maybe for boxing day!).
Terrible news about H&M. I guess that means Polo Park leases the safeway space to someone else...
