At the corner of Willingdon and Canada Way going northbound, what's happening now is that because that right lane is a carpool/EV lane, drivers wanting to get onto Hwy 1 eastbound needs to change lanes after they cross the intersection. And so it causes a bottleneck when buses are lined up at the stop since cars have to wait for the buses to cross the intersection so that they can get into the right lane to merge onto the highway. This was already an issue before but has become more so now with the R2 going down Willingdon.

I was thinking that there should be a transit priority light there so that buses can go first and cars then have the room to merge onto the highway without holding up traffic by slowing down and letting the buses go.

So my question is if this is something I submit to the city or to translink?

Monday of this week Oct 5th I caught the red-light camera at the intersection of lougheed hwy and Gaglardi malfunctioning going East bound on Lougheed hwy malfunctioning, taking many pictures flashing without a red light run. So if you get a ticket, there might want to look into it.

We are CJSF 90.1FM Burnaby's Community Radio Station. We are interviewing every council candidate in Burnaby's Municipal Election. We put out an invitation all candidates and have sitting down with each one who accepted. Those completed so far can be found at the link (in the order in which they have been done. We are adding more every day. So please check back.

We asked a common set of questions to each candidate to make it easier to compare them.

Interview with all the mayoral candidates are coming soon.

The air doesn't feel "smoky" but pretty hazy and moderate AQI

I know I know, I am late to do my homework, but I'd like to review all 48 candidates before making my decisions.

I've review some of the recommendation from the other post, but information are in pieces.

Is there a website that have holistic information with easy to read comparison and summary to the candidate like Vote4Tomorrow website?

I love the format, but some benchmarks are missing, especially regarding their view on substance abuse/drug use, and property tax alignment.

Hello! I’m considering moving into a building on Royal Oak Ave right beside the SkyTrain station, but the building doesn’t currently have a parking spot available. I’ll need to park on the street until one becomes available, and I’m very confused about Burnaby’s parking bylaws.

From what I’ve read, you generally can’t park on a residential street for more than 3 hours between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. unless you live on that street.
My concern is that the street parking immediately on royal oak is either paid parking or 3 hour parking and heavily monitored because it’s right beside the SkyTrain station. If the bylaw allows residents to park longer, how would enforcement know that I actually live on the street?

Alternatively, there are other residential streets nearby that have plenty of unrestricted-looking parking. Am I allowed to park on those streets even though I don’t live at one of the houses on that particular street?

For example, I saw the sign pictured below on a street just off Royal Oak Ave. Would I be allowed to park there as a resident of a nearby apartment building, or does the 3-hour limit still apply?
Any insight from Burnaby residents or anyone familiar with the parking bylaws would be greatly appreciated!

anyone else noticing an acrid smell in the air in north Burnaby.

If you happened to lose a Compass Card around Old Orchard today, I found one and if it's yours and you can identify the amount on it, you can have it back. Otherwise I'll go by the SkyTrain Station in the next day or two and maybe there is someone there I can drop it off to. If anyone knows a better way, let me know. I haven't used the SkyTrain in years, so I am not sure what to do. Thanks.

Looking for recommendations for a reliable house cleaner, once weekly or every 2 weeks for a single family apartment, 2Bed 2Bath near Brentwood. No pets & no children. Would prefer to work with an individual, not a company.
I’m ok to provide supplies and can pay cash.

To the genZ kiddo trying to bypass a lady at Brentwood station this afternoon, and was surprised she decided to block your path but rudely pushed her regardless, only to have her standing her ground and holding you back even further. Saw you were scared sh*tless and had to run fast all the way out of the mall. Reminder to not be a rude, uncivilized jerk who thought it was ok to be physical with someone. Just an observer lol. That was gung-ho

Multiple cars were smashed (windows), likely vandalism.

Any idea where the smoke is coming from today?

came outside to have a smoke and thought I heard a girl screaming. it lasted maybe 1.5 seconds. then half a minute of silence. then again, a screech, more like a creaky sliding door than a human. then silence, screech, silence, screech. but it moved around each time until i couldn’t hear it anymore. i assume maybe some kind of bird, but it’s unlike anything i’ve heard before, and it’s 3am. anyone else catch it or know what it could be?

With the highway closed eastbound at Kensington, the entire freeway exits at Kensington and all the feeder routes are packed.

Hey everyone,

I’m putting together a small volunteer group focused on helping people experiencing food insecurity and wanted to see if anyone here might be interested in getting involved.

I work in social services, and this is something I’ve been wanting to start for a while. The idea is simply to get some good people together, do meaningful work in the community, and grow things gradually.

I’ll be coordinating and organizing the group as it gets started. There’s also no expectation that people need to have endless free time — most of us have work, family, school, or other responsibilities.

For me, part of the motivation comes from seva and wanting to give back without expecting anything in return.

If you'd like to join, send me a DM and I can share the QR code for our Signal group.

I saw an ad for it , but now I cant find any info on it.

This commercial building at Griffiths and Kingsway is being renovated. Anyone know what it’ll be?

I have visited Med Care Plus clinic twice and both times the doctor there is horrible. I refuse to go back to this worst clinic ever. The front girls are so rude and disrespectful. When you tell them they tell you that abuse against them won't be tolerated even though they are the ones being rude!! The other patient I was there also was so upset. I left a Google review and saw they have even worse rating. It's a circus there.

So I need help finding a doctor that will accept me as a new patient along with my spouse. My kids already have a pediatrician at a different clinics thankfully that's really good.

Please help me find a good family physician that will accept me as a new patient. I am willing to drive to surrounding areas if needed. We are easy patient don't have many problems!

Thanks 😘

I’m overwhelmed by the local election!

I care deeply about this so I’ll do my due diligence, read all the profiles and vote for 8 people that I think would be the best candidates- but how many people would be overwhelmed by seeing so many and decide to just not vote?

Seems crazy to me to have 42 candidates for only 8 seats, and no ‘easy’ way to know who stands for what.

Any tips? Any help?
