    No, the 2nd last station. then bus. then walk 15 min.

    Biking from station to where I work would be a serious decision on a regular basis --there are many wide transport trucks on that route. Construction is still going on at certain points. I only commute by bike part way.

    There will be protected bike and pedestrian bike path along the Golden Ears bridge. You can now see the nearly completed bridge now at different points in Langley. Against the mountain range, it seems to float with its white bridge cabling, like a ship suspended in air. It is a different look than the Alex Fraser River bridge.

    There will be intrepretative signage and benches to sit down on the bridge to reflect the history of the area (aborigina/First Nations land), salmon, etc.

    Yes, the bike deck to the airport should be great. With the Arthur Laing bridge, I just tell myself, that those cars probably overspeeding at least 100 kmph won't hit me, on the road bridge curve. I'm not sure if you are aware, but a police officer in Ontario was killed on an equally fast highway..and he was standing legitimately on a marked right-hand road shoulder with his cruiser in the same shoulder lane.

    I don't trust airport road traffic, because there are drivers in a hurry or they don't know the road directions too well (which why my partner's relatives from Germany asked HIM to drive them in their rented car from the airport to our home).
