VANCOUVER A Vancouver man claims he and his wife were the victims of a road rage incident caught on camera, and says he is disappointed with the response from local police. The incident happened on Jan. 2 as Greg Sheridan drove northbound in the left lane on the Oak Street Bridge with his wife in the passenger seat. Sheridan claims the driver of a black BMW approached them rapidly from behind, getting very close before braking. “The person aggressively tailgated me, flashed their lights at me several times,” Sheridan said. “And then as soon as he seemed to have some space to get into the right hand lane, attempted to pass.”
“From the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, people have naturally been more interested in using active transportation to safely move around and stay connected to their community,” said Rob Fleming, BC Minister of Transportation and Infrastructure in a statement.
“With this funding as part of our government’s economic recovery plan, we were able to create new jobs and get shovels in the ground quickly to build infrastructure that helps our communities build back stronger.”
The most significant projects within Metro Vancouver include improvements to the West 16th Avenue cycle path within the UBC campus, improvements to the multi-use pathway on both ends of the Lions Gate Bridge, new multi-use pathway under the Highway 1 Lynn Valley Road overpass connecting with the existing 21st Street and Morgan Road bike lanes, and a new bike lane on the Highway 1 eastbound ramp through Capilano Road.
This will include replacing four km of aging water main, installing one km of separated sanitary and storm sewer pipelines, upgrading traffic signals at eight intersections, installing left-turn traffic signals at two intersections to help reduce collisions, repaving the roadway completely, and spotting improvements of sidewalks.

The municipal government states this project is necessary as the water main in the area has reached the end of its lifespan, and the sewer lines have reached capacity. These utility upgrades will help serve the area’s growing demand from development.
Trenches up to three metres deep will be excavated to replace the utilities.
