I heard this on the radio this morning and with how passionate CP is on the topic of driving/traffic I was surprised there wasn't a thread on this.

First off, commute times have decreased by 20% from 2004 to 2012 in Calgary?!?!?! I'd like to see some data to back that up.
Considering in early 2004 Deerfoot trail had 2 (or 3) sets of lights on it still and had been under construction for a couple years to start getting those lights turned into interchanges, I am not at all surprised by that stat.

Unless I am mistaken, the Douglasdale/24St interchange was the last one and it finished in 2005.
