Loughheed Highway at Willingdon Avenue. Left turn bays and wide travel lanes produce an excessively wide right-of-way that is inhospitable to pedestrians and cyclists. Commercial strip development along its edges is oriented towards cars rather than towards people. 
Photo showing Granville Street passing through the community of Marpole. The concentration of neighbourhood-oriented commercial uses ensures a steady flow of pedestrians and local traffic. This high-volume arterial handles as much traffic as Lougheed Highway within a much narrower right-of-way. With wide sidewalks, street trees, furniture, and curb lane parking (which, during non-peak hours, acts as a buffer to passing cars), the negative impacts of traffic do not excessively affect the pedestrian.
