This was part of the planned "Glenmore widening and interchange" project (https://www.calgary.ca/transportatio...-projects.html, https://www.calgary.ca/content/dam/w...all-design.pdf). They finished all the widening of Glenmore itself, rebuilt the noise barrier at WB Glenmore to NB Crowchild, built the new pedestrian bridge at 54th Ave; for some reason the only thing that was planned as part of the project and DIDN'T get done was the double-turn from EB Glenmore to NB Crowchild and two straight-through lanes.
