If you're in Victoria, BC and looking for a traffic calmed connection between bike lanes on Dallas Road and Superior Street, check out the Montreal Street bicycle boulevard. This route also provides access to parks, community gardens and tennis courts. #yyjbike #biketooter #bikeways #trafficcalming #cycling
The new Hillside Avenue protected bike lanes in Victoria, BC are progressing well. This will eventually provide a connection between the Kings Road bicycle boulevard and protected bike lanes on Gorge Road and Government Street. #yyjbike #biketooter #bikelane #bikelanes #ProtectedBikeLane
A few photos showing progress on the Gorge Rd protected bike lanes in Victoria, BC. Eventually, this will enable riders to connect with AAA infrastructure in neighbouring municipalities (Saanich and Esquimalt). We also saw sections of raised cycle track and a continuous sidewalk just West of the Government St protected bike lane. #yyjbike #biketooter #bikelane #bikelanes #ProtectedBikeLane
Another new bike lane in Victoria, BC. The Caledonia Ave protected bike lane extends from the Government Street protected bike lane to Cook Street and provides a connection to the Vancouver Street bicycle boulevard. #yyjbike #biketooter #bikelane #bikelanes #protectedbikelane
As a follow-up to a previous post, here is the finished on-street patio on the Government Street protected bike lane in Victoria, BC (just South of Chatham St). #yyjbike #placemaking #biketooter #protectedbikelanes
Check out this interactive art installation in Victoria, BC at the corner of Government St and Wharf St. Ride to play the music and see the projected images created by local artist Jamin Zuroski.

Progress today on the new quick build protected bike lane on Shelbourne Street in Victoria, BC. #biketooter #bikelane #protectedbikelane #yyjbike
This weeks video shows an example of how small additions to AAA networks can sometimes make a big difference with connections to public parks (Victoria, BC). #yyjbike #biketooter #bikelane #bikelanes #cycling #protectedbikelane
Esquimalt is building a AAA network! Beyond improving safety & access, this will also enable connections with AAA networks in Saanich and Victoria. Here's our first Esquimalt protected bike lane video. #esquimalt #yyjbike #biketooter #bikelane #cycling
We saw these scenic bike route maps at the bike valet in Victoria, BC. It's a great way to encourage visitors to explore the city using safe AAA infrastructure. #biketooter #yyjbike #cycling #bikevalet #bikelanes
This week we're taking a scenic ride along Gorge Waterway Park in Saanich, BC to see the new Gorge Road West protected bike lane. This bike lane also connects to the Tillicum Road protected bike lane and will soon be extended to Victoria. #saanich #yyjbike #biketooter #bikelane #protectedbikelanes #cycling
The longest protected bike lane in the City of Victoria is now 3.9 km long! The expanded Fort Street protected bike lane includes bicycle signal lights, bike racks, public seating, sidewalk upgrades, new crosswalks, flowers and trees. #yyjbike #biketooter #bikelanes #protectedbikelane #cycling #urbancycling
It's nice to see bike valets becoming the new standard at festivals in Victoria. Photo taken of the bike valet at FernFest on the weekend. #yyjbike #bikeparking #biketooter
Achieving safe road design can be an iterative process. It's great to see the City of Victoria improving safety based on feedback and monitoring along the Haultain St bicycle boulevard. The intersection of Fernwood Rd and Haultain St has returned to a 4-way stop. Just in time for GoByBike week. #yyjbike #biketooter #biketowork #GoByBikeBC #cycling #urbancycling
The corner of Fernwood and Haultain has turned into even more of a shitshow. Approaches along Haultain have big flashing signs up for a couple days, "TRAFFIC PATTERN CHANGED - ALL WAY STOP" except... no such signs along Fernwood, and...
* NO * STOP * SIGNS * ADDED * ON * FERNWOOD *
It's not possible to overstate how maliciously incompetent that is.
After noting the support for the year-round free bike valet by the Downtown Victoria Business Association, now even a suburban mall sees the benefit of providing a free bike valet. There are still some gaps in the bike network by Hillside Mall but the bike valet returns for a second summer! #biketooter #yyjbike #saanich #bikeparking

An excellent example of how construction can be completed beside a bike lane without blocking it (or the sidewalk). Photo taken along the Pandora Avenue protected bike lane in Victoria, BC. #yyjbike #biketooter #bikelanes #protectedbikelanes #cycling #urbancycling
During an evening bike ride on the Beacon Hill Park multi-use pathway we saw quite a few wildflowers. Check out this field of Camas and a happy Bumble bee near Dallas Rd in Victoria, BC.
