Not exactly sure what you mean.
If the bridge leading up to the loop is still only one lane, then adding a second lane to the loop loses a majority of its effectiveness. It does appear the exit to southbound could be 2 lanes before merging into the single lane for the bridge would might help slightly.

Because of the nearby power station, the loop ramp from wesbound Glenmore to southbound Stoney has a very tight turning radius and traffic moves slowly to the degree that it's backing up onto westbound Glenmore allegedly all the way to 37 St, compounded by a confusing lane configuration approaching the entire interchange.
