My industrial park west of the airport (just north of deerfoot mall) has only 3 exits. It took me an hour and a half to get to the chilis on Barlow at 37th (a normal ten minute drive). I gave up to drink beer and watch the leafs play the isles for an hour - Barlow had some of worst congestion I have seen in Calgary.

Roads were good (if slippery) after that I guess. Funny how less bad a storm seems when the morons get home.

That park has the worst access for thousands of workers. Especially when the major out roads haven't been grated and are missing lanes... Even Deerfoot mall had lines of more than 100 cars trying to get onto 64th through the parking lot. It didn't help that a bus was jack-knifed on the hill up towards Barlow (11th?).

430-7 yesterday, 430-8 today.. Can I possibly take 4.5 hours to make my 30 minute commute tomorrow?
