Dumont wants to have the bike lane reactivated “as soon as operationally reasonable” until the end of October 2021.
Park Board staff are also being asked to consult with stakeholders such as restaurant businesses and the Vancouver Aquarium and consult with the city’s advisory committees, including the Seniors Advisory Committee and the Persons with Disabilities Advisory Community.
It is expected that learnings from the changes that altered Stanley Park’s road system last year will result in the implementation of improvements and “innovations.”
The controversial bike lane was a sticking point for several park businesses after their parking lots were significantly reduced or completely blocked off for the bike lane. Parking was particularly affected for far-flung destinations such as Brockton Point, the northeast shoreline near Pipeline Road, Prospect Point, and Third Beach. Parking was also significantly reduced at Second Beach.
