Also keep in mind (according to the drawing on their website) that the two WB>NB and the two EB>NB lanes need to reduce to two NB lanes (total) as they come together. The plan shows 3 NB lanes coming down the hill and 5 lanes after everything merges so they have to lose two lanes somewhere. I wonder what the traffic models were like for WB>NB were, it sure seems like there is more traffic (at rush hour) than perhaps anticipated.

WB>NB may drop sometime after the south leg opens, as right now, the bypass is to the North. But with the south open, a lot of traffic going further east on the TCH will head south instead of North if they ever do the 22x>Gleichen bypass. Was that ever approved, or still just an idea? Seems an easy win.
