Imagine a road network in a very hilly area, (eg West Vancouver plus Alberta foothills times ten).\u00c2\u00a0 Build all your major roads\/arteries only running along ridges. Then if you turn right or left, you must plunge downhill.\u00c2\u00a0Build all\u00c2\u00a0your housing in West Van circular one way-in style.\u00c2\u00a0 Also it ruins the game if you put up any decent road signs.\u00c2\u00a0 I got lost regularly 1\/2 block after leaving the house.<\/p>\n
\u00c2\u00a0If the local rugby team ( similar rabid fans as the Canucks) have a\u00c2\u00a0 game in their small 50 000 person stadium, the entire town is gridlocked in and out for 4-5 hrs prior to kickoff.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 They neglected to build any way around the major stadiums. It’s based on the national Aussie practise of making sure all traffic passes through the town before getting back on their version of an expressway. You want to extract the full dollar value from every traveller through.<\/p>\n
What is an expressway? Beats me. they look like local roads where you travel 120 Km.\u00c2\u00a0 Entrance ramps look like short driveways into a suburban house lot. Couple that with drive -through liquor stores 24\/7 and its a bit dicey to drive!\u00c2\u00a0 But all the restaurants outside of big centers are done by 8 PM.\u00c2\u00a0 Its like Victoria 20 years ago!<\/p>\n
Its still a really good town to do business. I got full roi on this trip on my second day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
