This is beyond parody. The city planners can’t even conceive of a space dedicated to people instead of cars. This isn’t rocket science.
From the linked file, it sounds as if they're working on a permanent solution, especially since the businesses in the area are supportive of it; however, this is Vancouver we're talking about. I wouldn't be surprised if this project was shelved in favour of "wHeRe ShOuLd I PaRk My CaR?".
As an aside, I recognize the first user to reply to you and I highly suggest blocking them. All they have to share is there negative emotions.
Based on their track record you're absolutely right, this is almost certainly on the backburner, never to return. I've lost all patience with this city's complete inability to deliver the simplest of promises. I'm only judging them on what they actually accomplish, not what they say they will do one day maybe in the future.
