But why is it such a hard pill to swallow? There's hundreds of millions of dollars being spent on interchanges, ring roads, infrastructure costs, expropriations, etc. in order to accomodate (expanding) sections of this city that most other citizens will barely use, if at all. Surely we could cut costs there, if people are becoming so buttmunching over $22 million?
This is a cost that people really shouldn't have any reason to get upset about given the pricetag of other projects. I'm never going to use an expensive interchange next to Mackenzie Town, but I'm not getting myself up in arms about it.
This is a pedestrian bridge, and if people are complaining about this one, wait until the next one is publically announced. There's a cost associated with that one, too.
