We took Stoney NW to Harvest Hills (AKA Center St) on the weekend then Center North to 566 and over to the #2 15 mins from Royal Oak it's awesome!! Cross Iron mall is closer/faster then getting to downtown.
I seriously don't understand why there is going to be a light at harvest hills and the 2lanes/or 3lanes/ or 4lanes in places is going to be a disater. Lanes disappear. Truckers will hate it if it gets busy as merge lanes go into the crusing lanes in places. 3 lanes would be ideal and no planning for the future appears in places (ex. Nose Creek bridge (Near Kincora) has no room for expansion, build it 6 lanes and use 4 because to add those 2 extra lanes in 10 years will cost 2 times the cost of the inital 4 lane bridge)
I understand people can't merge in this city but do we really need to idiot proof all these interchanges for that? The foot print and I imagine the cost of some of these could be reduced significantly if people learned to merge properly and drivers move over or let merging traffic in (3 lanes would help).
