The Casorso Active Transportation Corridor (ATC) is now open for use by Âé¶čAV residents.
It provides protected bike routes from downtown to Lower Mission and the Mission Creek Greenway.
âThe completion of the Casorso Active Transportation Corridor is an important step in creating safer, more comfortable, routes throughout the city for people who bike, walk, or roll,â said Mayor Tom Dyas.

The $4.4 million project was made possible in part to a $500,000 grant from British Columbia Active Transportation Infrastructure and $2,190,400 from the Canada Community-Building Fund.
âWe collected feedback from community members, including school administration, the parent association, and local groups like cycling associations and used it to help shape and refine the overall design to ensure it meets the needs of the community,â said Chad Williams, senior transportation engineer.
The project underwent a Road Safety Audit conducted by ICBC and the findings and recommendations were incorporated to enhance safety and accessibility.
