Took it home this morning from Bow Trail and was half the time. Took it from Cougar Ridge/Old Banff Coach road and half the time of Sarcee. Coming home 16 ave to get on to Stoney North was backed up until under the underpass at Bowfort Road. Hiway 1 rom the west was backed up so far I couldnt see the start of it. WTF were these guys thinking? Myself and bet many others will stay away from this gong show until they figure it out or opwn it all. All the hype for opening to this mess? I fell sorry for all those that were lined up forever to get on it.

I was worried that's what would happen...more bottlenecks in an already bottlenecked area.
Coming from the SW to Crowfoot this afternoon (around 430), it was smooth sailing along NB Stoney - no traffic between Bow and TCH, and a straight through lane onto the bridge with no other traffic merging in.
