Apparently, they're done already...

@660NewsTraffic: #yyc Drivers ecstatic after driving the newly opened SE leg of Stoney Trail.They say it's now open in both directions from Macleod to 17th.

So they say.

Yeah, that tweet couldn't possibly be true. They've been a reliable source so I don't know why they decided to post that bull####. Mainline itself might be open though, just not the accesses upstream.

Ya, it's the Stoney trail that's open now. Traffic is now showing on google maps. Interchanges and ramps are still in process.

Drove south from Peigan to 114th, turned back onto NB. So quick, I got back to my daughter's school to pick her up early. Should have gone all the way to 52nd.

The lines are a bit hard to see in some places, but you can see the car tracks.

The EB Glenmore to NB Stoney movement is already backed the F up. This is... bad. There are provisions for a flyover, at least.

A single lane left turn at a traffic light. Setup of that interchange is similar to Anderson/ McLeod or Deerfoot 17th.

As someone who use to drive that area all the time that's pretty unbelievable IMO, can't believe they wouldn't fix this as part of the initial Stoney Opening...

I don't want to be over dramatic cause it's just a road, but I can't call this Glenmore movement anything other than a catastrophic failure. I'm going through it WB to see if, hopefully, the light is horribly mistimed. It has to be. WB Glenmore over Stoney shouldn't have hardly any volume in the afternoon rush.
