There is also an arterial road planned to run along 80th Avenue from 216th Street, which will turn south onto 212th and eventually connect with 208th. This will relieve some of the pressure from 208th Street once it's built. Here's a quick map showing the new arterial curving south at 80th & 212th, with 80th meeting it in a T-intersection.

Good lord that aerial photo is depressing to look at will all that sprawl along 208. Would it kill them to at least leave some of the greenery for a a few sizable parks or greenways. Nothing left. Oh yeah and let's improve traffic flow by adding more ligths instead of roundabouts or something. Yawn.
