They can, and are, see Auburn Bay. The limit is 70 kph. No ring road ramp has a limit of 100 kph.

Google Earth - Deerfoot Tr between 22X and Cranston Ave




The ramp is 9 meters from the closest house. Very low traffic most times of day, I'd be surprised if the peak am hour is more than 50-100 vehicles per hour. 2-lane ramp next to it is ~2,000 vehicles per hour in the morning peak and probably a decent source of noise.
