Pathway crossing at Vaan Drive
The recreational pathway along Woodroffe just south of the Sportsplex where it crosses Vaan Drive. This is a pretty typical pathway crossing treatment - and it is both dangerous and unsupported in law. It is dangerous because turning traffic from Woodroffe (either direction) may not be looking for rapidly approaching cyclists. It is unsupported in law because a multi-use pathway carries cyclists but riding in crosswalks is illegal under the Highway Traffic Act. The proper way to do this would have been to divert the path away from Woodroffe - not towards - and create a dedicated intersection with Vaan Drive without a crosswalk.
