Letter: Traffic changes don’t make sense

October 17, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Thank you to The Columbian for the front-page article “Vancouver street changes spark concerns” (Oct. 11) regarding the elimination of lanes on Southeast 34th Street, which caused a 12-block traffic jam to turn south onto 164th Avenue.

Letter: There should be no confusion

October 17, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Letter: A fix for Electoral College

October 17, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

Letter: Street changes don’t make sense

October 16, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor

I have been reading about complaints from Save Our Streets, a group that is opposed to the changes in Vancouver’s roads. I agree that changes being wrought upon our streets are causing many problems, not only on S.E. 34th Street, but all over the city. Read story

Letter: Children should be ‘born in love’

October 16, 2024, 6:00am Letters to the Editor
