The default median width for the ring roads has been 30 m, and widening has been on the median-side. There are power lines alongside the freeway for about half of Henday's TUC but never in the median. There's a whole debate now about whether or not Stoney SW's should have been scaled back to not have the massive median. They probably didn't want to run into redesign issues that might press the clock with the Tsuut'ina deal because we'd be so far beyond screwed as an entire province if the deal lapsed.

I get that. My only question is the validity of claims that this walkway was somehow built in some way different than what they were originally told.
