Southwest leg in 2021, and the West leg in 2022.

The SW leg will allow Tuscanites like myself to bypass the Glenmore causeway, and whatever combination of Macleod, 14th, etc. that is the lesser evil on the day. I would still have to use Sarcee to get to that point, however. The West leg will allow me to bypass Sarcee as well.

The SW leg being complete will also mean that the direct access via Spruce Meadows Trail will be much improved as well.

A fair bit of relief in 2021, and then smooth sailing in 2022. Just pulling numbers out of the air, but I'd guess that a fully complete ring road will shave it down to a 25 minute drive on a good day.
