I work in Yaletown, live in Kitsilano and have typically used the viaducts about once a week during the summer, most often to head over to the North Shore after work via Second Narrows - at peak hours I might add. There's never any traffic on them.
I've been cycling alongside the viaducts quite a bit this week, as I often cycle the long way around False Creek to and from work, and the seawall is closed right now between Carrall Street and Edgewater. These visits have not given me the same warm and fuzzies that they have to some other posters here, I have to say.

there's not much traffic on them cause they are doing there job helping get traffic east bound out of downtown - without them hastings, cordova etc would be a mess and much worse with idling cars
