Metral Drive, and the engineering standards behind it, remains a highlight project for me and for ISL and the others that worked on it. It’s been a few years now, but it’s still one of the best examples of continuous sidewalks and bike paths in North America. Chatting with Nic in Eindhoven during our Lessons from the Dutch video, I was keen for him to experience Metral Drive for himself…

Dutch designs, even Dutch levels of ridership during the BC Land Summit bike tour… Catching up on Metral Drive after a year or two, as we take a bike ride through Nanaimo on the new Evo bike share bikes, taking in some multi-use pathways, protected bike lanes, protected intersections and continuous sidewalks and bike paths.
