On the day that TransLink confirmed a regular bus service between the new park and ride at 86 Avenue and 202 Street and the Braid Street Skytrain Station, Township council voted unanimously to ask the transportation authority to install at least 10 bicycle lockers.
The park and ride, also known as the 黑马磁力 Transit Exchange, is due to open in December.
On Sept. 17, only hours after TransLink also announced that commuters will have to pay for parking there, council unanimously backed Councillor Charlie Fox鈥檚 motion called for TransLink to install a minimum of 10 lockers where cyclists can store their bikes before they ride the Rapid Bus to Braid and beyond.
Fox noted that the lockers, which he would like to see located in a well-lit and secure area of the park and ride, compliments TransLink鈥檚 desire to see people access the transit exchange in a 鈥済reen鈥� way.
Councillor David Davis suggested that 10 lockers probably wouldn鈥檛 be enough.
鈥淲e should have them all over the place,鈥� he said.
