Correct, unfortunately.

Yes but 37 St is now a white elephant and you can't get to 22X, so you'll have to take 146 Ave west and use a gravelled 53 St to get to 22X, or detour east into the city and use McKevitt or Macleod.

I know its all planned that way, but logically its the opposite of what you'd expect.
Yeah the whole thing is different because of the Tsuut'ina time constraint. The west leg is really only being split in half because of drama around the relocation of an Enmax power line, otherwise the entire ring would be done in 2022. So there is one more section split into a different timeline than originally planned.

The province was unsure they'd even have money to do the west leg when work started on the southwest.
