Actually about 0.5 miles of the TransCanada (Hwy 1 just before crossing
the bridge) is within the Corporate Limits of the City of Vancouver--and
it is limited access (freeway) here.  I think this makes Vancouver the
largest city with the fewest freeway miles of any in North America. This
is a Good Thing.  Cars stop for pedestrians--what a concept!

Yeah, but Chris, there's not a freeway to be found in Vancouver
anywhere! It takes like 4 hours to get across town!  But you can signal
a turn and be immediately let in at any time.  Maybe the slow pace IS
nirvana for vanagons after all..... bmc  :)
