Aerial imagery shows a private residence at 2790 Lashburn Road that can only be accessed from this point. It will first have to be determined whether that residence owner can still get through the gate that you pointed out to access his or her property.

It seems that Brentwood College now owns the road, and I believe also the house at the end. This article mentions that foot access should remain open 24/7 and that improvements to the road/trail would be happening in 2024. I'll check it out on-the-ground the next time I'm up that way. https://www.lakecowichangazette.com/local-news/new-gate-on-mill-bays-lashburn-road-as-brentwood-takes-ownership-7289879

I rode through on a bike about a month ago, and nothing suggested that foot/bike access is restricted. Even if it's privately owned, I think access tags should be updated accordingly.

It looks like the public ROW ends at this building, about where the note is, according to the Richmond map. Is the gate right here? We can probably add a gate here, then remove the name McKenzie Road from the road after it
3~ 1 month agocommentedSieva
♦79
Public ROW is what you see between property lots — this is city land. What seems questionable is marking the road (whether it has the name or not) as private. I don't know all the details, so just left the note for someone who might know/learn more.
4~ 1 month agoclosedjustinsenemy
♦232
You're right, it seems to be owned by the City according to property lines. I removed the private tags and set the road to "Track/Land Access Road" to discourage use since the road is closed to the public. Feel free to open this note back up and edit it if you believe there is a better way to handle this.

Well, incidentally, I surveyed all of Qualicum Beach's street addresses in person last year. It took me nine weekends to cover the whole town.
8~ 7 months agocommentedkeithonearth
♦1,773
Whether or not we do an import, I think it's important to be aware that the Vancouver address dataset from the CoV is not 100% accurate. There seems to be two issues with it, both of which stem from the fact that it is a map of the addresses of land parcels, not a map of all addresses. So when a single building takes up more than one parcel it has two nodes usually/always with the same address. More importantly when a land parcel has more than one address, only one is in the dataset. I've just been viewing the dataset in JOSM, looking at areas I manually added addresses to, and cannot find a single example of a building with more than one address in reality that has more than one in the dataset. When I did the building trace import, I checked on both the Wiki and the mailing list, and the only comments I got were in support of the licences being compatible, as long as the source was noted. If we do an import of addresses, I think it's important to include a fixme tag, or something else to track that the address has been imported w/o checking in person, so we can check for buildings with more than one address. The import itself wouldn't be particularly skilled, at least the way I'd do it. Open the CoV data in a separate layer in Josm, and copy and paste into the OSM layer, building by building. It would also take some pre-proccessing, so that the tags would match OSM standards, like changing streetname tags to not be in ALLCAPS.

And this is why on-the-ground surveys would be preferred here.
10~ 6 months agocommentedkeithonearth
♦1,773
Certainly, on the ground surveys produce the best results, the trade off is the amount of time they take. Vancouver is far behind other cities, for address data.
11~ 5 months agocommentedSieva

I think doing an import of non-existing addresses is the way to go.

Syntax errors. Each house number must be in a separate node or way, as Garmin devices cannot properly parse house numbers that are grouped like this.
2~ 6 months agocommentedSqAtx
♦9
OSM supports comma-separated numbers to signify that the same house has different numbers https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:addr:housenumber so it sounds like Garmin needs to be able to parse it
3~ 5 months agocommentedDENelson83
♦2,497
That is not possible. On a Garmin device, when you select "Where to?" and then "Address", when it asks for a house number, it does not accept any characters other than numeric digits in your input, and it demands an exact match on the house number, so when you input an address that uses one of these such grouped house numbers, it will not find it. Remember that Garmin does not officially support OpenStreetMap data on its GPS devices, as it sells its own map products instead.

Syntax error. Each house number must be in a separate node or way, as Garmin devices cannot properly parse house numbers that are grouped like this.

Circuit 8 Access is also walkable and flagging it as only a cycle path eliminates it from hiking routing. It should be marked as both a walk and cycle path.

I tried to do an on the ground survey of the area on Sunday (Sept. 8) via the Village Green Trail but was unable to access the Perimeter Trail due to closures related to the Transmountain pipeline construction. I will do another survey once the pipeline construction and remediation works finishes and update the access if needed.

I tried to do an on the ground survey of the area on Tuesday (Nov. 12) but was unable to access the area due to temporary closures related to Metro Vancouver trail construction works. I anticipate that the Perimeter Trail will reopen before the new year.

I was able to do an on the ground survey of the area on December 2, 2024 as the Perimeter Trail has finally re-opened. There is a Metro Vancouver sign located at approximately 49.22878, -122.81532 that says "Private Property No Public Access" (see imgur link for a photograph of the sign). This sign suggests that the Forensic Psychiatric Hospital lands are not open to the public (the bike route goes through the hospital lands). https://imgur.com/a/AOjWoRL I have emailed Metro Vancouver to learn more details about the signage and whether access is allowed.

I received a response from Metro Vancouver to my inquiry about their "No Public Access" signage. "The sign you noticed going towards Maquabeak Park references property outside of ƛ̓éxətəm Regional Park. That section is not a Metro Vancouver property, including the trail to Maquabeak Park. I can’t speak to if that trail is open or closed." I will follow-up with Metro Vancouver and ask that they check with the adjacent land owner (Provincial Health Services Authority) to determine the access provisions and modify their signage if access is allowed.

I have emailed the security manager for the forensic hospital about this sign.

After no luck with the security manager, I'm now waiting on a response from CBRE Canada who manages the property. I have also contacted the city of Coquitlam's transportation department.

After reaching to a total of 8 different agencies, I finally got a positive response from Ministry of Citizens' Services, Deputy Minister's Office > Real Property Division > Asset Management Branch > Real Estate Manager saying that the sign was in fact due to construction and they will remove it next week. Here's hoping!
