Calgary Stoney Trail Update   Message List

Re: Calgary Stoney Trail Update

Just looking at the pictures and video shown of the new highway. Why is it that
Calgary's ring road gets exit numbering while Edmonton's doesn't? Yellowhead
Trail through Edmonton has the numbering, but I'm curious as to this
discrepancy, especially since our ring road will soon be much closer to
free-flowing in 2 years time.

I suspect it was perhaps due to budget constraints or they think there not enough traffic yet for a full cloverstack Another point to mention, is AB-201/Stoney...

... I can understand budget constraints and traffic counts for not building the full cloverstack, but if there already is a flyover (the most expensive part of...

Even with budget constraints, why would they not make it at least RIRO for the Eastbound (which they haven't done) as well as Westbound (which they have done)....

... Hmmm. I remember voting YES in a plebiscite in the late 90's to shut it down. (Or maybe it was NO to keep it in operation) Either way, the "close it down"...

I took a drive on it too. Once this section from QE-2 to TCH-1 NW leg is completed;it still will not qualify TCH-1 and QE-2 on a freeway network. There are two...

Shaganappi at Stony Trail puzzles me as well. From watching the video, it appears that it isn't even RIRO on Eastbound Stony Trail, only westbound. Strange. ...
