The SE is being packed so tightly with starter homes and the city is expanding exponentially South. Doesn't that have to curb eventually unless we continue to upgrade access corridors to the deep south? Currently it's McLeod and Deerfoot right? As it stands it's pretty brutal trying to drive from downtown to places like Silverado. That can only get worse if we expand all the way down to De Winton. But we have this empty pocket of land that Stoney trail outlines bordered between Martindale, Saddleridge and the airport. That's going to be filled with something. Then the city probably has to expand East.
