12. UNIQUE CONDITIONS
There are 4 areas worth noting – as they present unique challenges
4. Harbourfront Marina Quay parking lot
3. Dan Leckie
2. Harbourfront Community centre
1. Bathurst intersection

13. 1. BATHURST INTERSECTION
The design must work around an existing Hydro pole and retaining wall and will include a crossing for pedestrians and cyclists

19. 4. HARBOURFRONT MARINA QUAY PARKING LOT
The design had to address the entrance to the Marina Quay Parking Lot

21. PART B: ON-STREET, SOUTH SIDE MARTIN GOODMAN TRAIL
Bathurst Street to Stadium Road

22. Bathurst to Stadium Road
The on-street bike lanes will be amalgamated and moved to the south side of the street. They will be separated from traffic by flexi-post barriers.

23. Existing Martin Goodman Trail
The on-street bike lanes will connect to the Martin Goodman Trail and into Coronation Park
