New 4th lane open both directions between 32 Ave and Beddington Trail as of a couple days ago. No tangible difference in traffic as the road is so horrendously over capacity that one lane can't make a dent. The interchange reconfigurations at McKnight, 16th and 64 Ave will increase safety outside of peak hours and that's really the goal in the north.
The changes in the south are far more drastic and will significantly help flow; Deerfoot will be 14 lanes across between Southland and Anderson. Couple more years before all that work is done.
