Okay so obviously you live in the north or don't drive. A single accident causes backups in just about the entire SW. MacLeod, Glenmore, 14th and 37th all turn into a traffic disasters and this happens daily. Not only that but it costs money. Many people need to get to places quickly to make money. Not to mention the effects on emergency vehicles to Rocky View.
Just connecting Anderson with 22x would be huge. Getting rid of lights on 14th would solve a lot more. I'm not saying we need a completed SW portion tomorrow but something has got to get done.
The province doesn't need to go through the reserve. That was only one option and there are many many others (small changes to existing roads make huge differences). If you saw how much was offered to the reserve you would be calling city hall tomorrow to complain.
