A proposed pathway roughly a dozen metres long that would be built along Brighton Ave., theoretically would help keep pedestrians safe, but Armitage said the current design brings it to an abrupt end, which would force pedestrians onto the Brighton asphalt, in the way of traffic.
Asphalt—or too much of it—is another concern, Armitage told Capital Daily. The felling of trees (possibly as many as 27, Travelbea said) would make for a thinner canopy and increased temperatures as the sun beats down on black asphalt.
99% or more of the days in the year I would think that "sun beating down on black asphalt" would be a welcome, if not a fantastic natural heating element.

Two previous proposals rejected, but before the crisis, or at least before the province started breathing down the neck of OB.

Not your average “lot” though. One acre on a fairly busy street. An opportunity for Oak Bay to have something to point at when they’re not approving most everything else.
