I would argue that a semi-circle does not make a "ring."

My point about the by-pass not being done; when you head east on Victoria from the Ring Road you still have several lights to contend with. I did see signs talking about a by-pass for that area now that it is being built up. Depending on the time of day you are going through, it can take up to 30 minutes to cross Regina; with a good chunk of that being that portion east of the Ring Road.

In fact Regina is a great example of a ring road that was never really completed; and the parts that were completed were not done well. I would suggest that Regina should be an example of what not to do.
