City of Vancouver: Seaside Greenway Completion Project - Burrard Bridge to Jericho Beach
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In 2014, the City of Vancouver upgraded walking and cycling connections between the Burrard Bridge and the west side of Vancouver through the Kitsilano neighbourhood. The striking changes illustrated by enclosed photos include the reconfiguration of the south end of Burrard Bridge, a new bikeway on York Avenue, and the completion of the Seaside Greenway, internationally known as the “Seawall,†between Kitsilano and Jericho Beach parks by converting Point Grey Road from a busy arterial into a quiet local street bikeway. To close a gap in the 28-km Seaside Gateway, 10,000 or more daily through trips by motor vehicles were redirected from Point Grey Road to parallel streets with spare capacity. The greenway now follows Vancouver’s waterfront from the convention centre along Coal Harbour on Burrard Inlet, around Stanley Park, past West End Beaches, through parks and promenades around False Creek, between Olympic Village and Granville Island, and ultimately along a chain of parks on English Bay linked by the repurposed Point Grey Road. In addition to physical changes, including the connection of two previously bisected parks, Point Grey Road has dramatically changed in character and function as the ratio of bicycle traffic to motor vehicles has increased by 100 times. This project was nominated for the TAC 2015 Sustainable Urban Transportation Award.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
