I saw these installed on the Arbutus Greenway today. This doesn't look in any form wheelchair, stroller, one wheel, skate board or bike friendly to me at all.

Is there any practical reason to build those barriers to justify making life harder for above mentioned groups?

Since I use that path , I agree with the speed bumps ppl rip it hard on that and it does make it hairy for walkers, etc

I’ve never seen wheelchairs there before. There is a 3% incline there. So I wouldn’t expect many to use it anyways because of that
