- get off at EB Richmond Road, and cut over to SB 37th St,
- get off at EB Glenmore, and keep going east on Glenmore to SB Crowchild, or,
- continue SB on the ring road and get off at EB Tsuut'ina Parkway, driving through three roundabouts and a four-way intersection to get to 37th
That'll take some getting used to. I don't doubt you're correct that people will complain about this; I'll wager it'll be some sexagenarian Lakeview resident who makes a local news forecast first. EDIT: But probably not before some blue-hair from Woodbine complains that traffic on 14th still sucks, even after the ring road is completely open. |
Isn't this exactly what Lakeview has wanted for years? All they have done is complain about traffic cutting through their neighborhood when Glenmore is backed up, when the casino opened, etc. etc. That problem will likely be resolved now since it becomes harder to get into the west side of the community. Sometimes people need to be careful what they wish for.
