Ryan Road East, Comox Valley
Ryan Road East, Comox Valley
The Issue
To the Honourable the Legislative Assembly of the Province in British Columbia, in Legislature Assembled.
The petition of the undersigned, Concerned Residents of East Ryan Road, of the Comox Valley Regional District, states that the speed limit on East Ryan Road, East of Anderton Rd and west of Belair Rd, should be lowered from 80 km/hr to 60 km/hr.
Your petitioners respectfully request that the Honourable House recommend for the safety of residents and businesses the speed be lowered to 60 km.
Dated 10th day of February, 2026
More information:
Ryan Road East is very dangerous for the residents and businesses. There are 47 driveways and 4 roads that require either stopping or slowing to a crawl to turn in, and the speed limit is 80 km/hr. The speed is also 80 km/hr through a busy 4-way intersection with a light that does not even have a designated left turn signal. There have been numerous motor vehicle accidents (MVA) at Ryan & Anderton, as well as many dogs and deer killed along this stretch. This road is used a lot for biking, walking, and jogging. The shoulders are very narrow. There is no crosswalk between Anderton intersection and the Base. There are many transport trucks using this road that cannot stop quickly. Another issue is passing on the right, which is done regularly and is extremely dangerous.
