If a bridge is built at Kettle Island, this whole interchange will need to be re-designed, and it will likely change again.

That description wasn't mine, I just copied it from here:

I understood it just as you described. The barrier would block all 417 westbound traffic from exiting at St. Laurent when they merge at the split.
Instead, they would have to exit at Aviation parkway and turn on to Ogilvie road to get to St. Laurent.
174 westbound traffic can still exit at St. Laurent.
