I know everyone is disappointed about the lights, but seriously, is it that big of a deal?

The road got done opened much sooner because of the decision to leave those lights in, and now instead of having to go through 20 sets of lights (I don't know the real number) on a 2 lane road to get through Calgary, you can now do it with 3 sets of lights on a road that is for the most part 3 lanes wide.
Seems a lot better to me. Stoney trail may not be perfect, but a lot of congestion just got lifted off of 16th ave and other streets.

Hell, when I want to leave town going East now, this road will save me at least 20 minutes.
