That includes Esquimalt Rd just with the construction activity along with the new bike lanes there. The road is really narrow and with certain bends combined with the concrete bike lane separators, makes it tough for buses especially to navigate. Love all the new projects, but once residents move in adding to the vehicular volume clearly that is going to be a commuting PITA even more than it is now. If only we had a rail option....

Yesterday when I drove through Esquimalt, mid business day, not a soul on two wheels. Traffic, jammed.

It’s crazy.

Same for me a couple days ago. Jammed with cars on Esquimalt Rd. The 40km/h speed limit is wonderful.

...or not :). Even more amusing are the lowered speed limits on Gorge Rd - from Gorge & Washington (save stopping at the light at Harriet obviously) down to the Tillicum light no_one does those reduced speeds; 60kph would be far closer to the reality.....
