A few observations...

On the new ring road in the SW, going southbound TTT to turn on Fish Creek BLVD, the exit is #13. Seems a little sketchy to me.

The light at that intersection to turn EB on Fish Creek BLVD is way too short. The light going WB on Fish Creek BLVD is way too long, and all the roads west of there are basically trash. I don't see a lot of cars heading that direction.

Finally, the small white plastic reflectors on the inside of TTT have blue reflectors at the top. Why is that? On the shoulder side they are white reflectors. When you merge off to go through an interchange they are yellow (yellow line painted on the road). I assume they are blue because these are essentially collector lanes with inside lanes being built fifty years from now.

Also, most of the Stoney interchanges have jagged grey mountainous concrete forms under the overpasses as artwork I assume. The ones on TTT have grey concrete lines in the shape of mountain peaks instead. But, they look like someone just painted on grey jagged lines instead, and the further north you go, it looks like they gave up through the middle of the project because they had to go for a lunch break.
