About this crossing
The Lions Gate carries Highway 99 over the First Narrows between the North Shore and Stanley Park: three lanes, the middle one reversed to the rush direction, so two lanes point at downtown in the morning and two at West Vancouver in the afternoon. Locals say the Lions Gate or the First Narrows; the causeway is the road through Stanley Park that feeds it, and a queue on one is a queue on the other. Mornings it backs up Marine Drive and Taylor Way in West Van; afternoons the causeway backs into the West End and along Georgia. The alternate is the Ironworkers via the Upper Levels and Highway 1, which is the longer way round to downtown but often the faster one.
