Just IMHO not a lot of foresight when closing roads to communities that had access for over 15 years - notwithstanding what was always on the plans once LRT & Stoney were going to be built.
Since you mentioned Royal Oak, I assume you also mean Rocky Ridge Road, which is referring to the bolded portion of your post? High speed freeways are never going to mix with master planned community full of circuitous routes designed to give everyone their own "private" street life. The developer needed to take the future network into consideration rather than what was currently available (and what they knew would disappear eventually) and provide better routing in and out of the community.
