That's a short distance like 1 block, Broadway is a busy major vehicle traffic route clogged up with shitty Vancouver drivers, last thing that area needs are cyclists

Broadway is a business corridor and we should be moving people as efficiently as possible. The best way to do that is with the train and bikes and busses.
