Getting the airport to come to their senses on this would be good. The Airport Trail tunnel is useful, but it becomes much more useful for many people in southern Calgary and southern Alberta with the full connection.
The airport is worried about traffic, but Airport Trail is going to be three lanes each way going by the airport. It only two lanes each way currently, and is it ever busy?
It would be decades before there would be enough traffic on Airport Trail to affect someone's airport experience, IMO. Traffic would still flow fairly well with triple the current volume.

Interesting, I thought Airport trail was going to connect to Stoney from the beginning and the interchanges only had to be built when traffic met a certain criteria.
