Might still be a while for that one though

Stoney Trail is open between 17 Ave SE and the Trans Canada Hwy (west). There is still construction happening at Crowchild Trail (Hwy 1A), however the overpasses are partially open so the lights on Stoney Trail are gone. Nose Hill Drive interchange construction is starting this summer.
I agree that the Cochrane "shortcut" is no longer really a short cut, it's becoming fairly slow to go through Cochrane on Hwy 22 and if you're coming from Hwy 2, you have to go through either Olds or Airdrie.
Back to topic on the thread, Cochrane is a nice town in the Calgary area
