It seems a no-brainer as a commuter link to put a low-impact trail connection (with bridge) between Laurelwood and Wes Graham. Anyone agree?
I understand that something is in the books possibly as high as road. However, that section of Laurel Creek is still identified as an "Environmental Reserve" in some circles which hinders what can be done. As well, since the property is technically the private property of the University (bounded by Columbia, Fisher-Hallman, Bearinger, and the railway right-of-way), it's not as easy for the City to simply put a road or trail connection in.
