Letters: Find safe bike routes in Richmond, please

A Richmond News reader wants safer bike lanes in the city and not the one on No. 3 Road

Dear Editor,

As a cyclist I can see Richmond City Council members are not avid cyclists.

Think about the routes already established in Richmond. All the major ones run east to west except for Railway Avenue. Why are we placing one along Steveston Highway when we can travel on River Road?

Yes ,Translink will contribute money if it is placed there, however tell me how we can safely travel north to south?

And please don’t use No. 3 Road as an example! It’s a death trap. Shell Road is not a safe place or paved surface.

So let’s concentrate on that direction for a change.
