If New West was going to build a ped/cycling bridge, it would be from Quayside to Queensborough, but that's been shelved too. Haven't heard the councilors that came up with all sorts of ideas for the Pattullo advocate for that. |
The councillors (Paul Minhas and Daniel Fontaine) advocating for turning the Pattullo into a pedestrian and cycling bridge regularly vote against improvements to pedestrian and cycling infrastructure in New West in the first place. That they would resort to AI slop (there's a great rendering of a lizard person sitting on a bench in Minhas's image) to propose something that they know would cost hundreds of millions of dollars is just the height of shameless and unrealistic populism.
