Seconded by Alderman Mabbett:

WHEREAS the Board of School Trustees of School District No. 43
(Coquitlam) has constructed the Hastings Junior Secondary School west of
the Coquitlam River, north of Lincoln Avenue, and east of Pipeline Road;

AND WHEREAS the said school is expected to open in September, 1976;

AND WHEREAS the majority of the students for the said school will
come from the area of the City of Port Coquitlam located east of the
Coquitlam River thus necessitating a long, arduous, and hazardous journey
to the said school;

AND WHEREAS an unsatisfactory condition arises as the only route to
the school is along the very busy Lougheed Highway which will shortly be
in process of widening from two lanes to four lanes thus presenting all
the consequent and usual hazards of detours, heavy road-building machinery,
unsatisfactory walking surfaces, etc.;

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of School Trustees of

School District No. 43(Coquitlam) and the appropriate agencies cf the
Provincial Government be requested to make the necessary funds available
in order that an effective shuttle bus service may be operated from the
area of the City of Port Coquitlam east of the Coquitlam River to the
new Hastings Junior Secondary Schvol west of the River until such time
as walking conditions along the Lougheed Highway return to a reasonable
standard.

Prior to the question being called on the resolution discussion
ensued during which Alderman Mabbett expressed the concern that the
conditions at present on the Lougheed Highway were not safe for walking
and felt that construction of a sidewalk was the only solution and
Alderman Thompson noted that the design drawings for the Highway re-
construct:iion did not include any sidewalk construction and Alderman

Mabbett then proposed the following amendment.
