Does having a major thoroughfare running through a cemetery happen more often than not around the country? |
The cemetery was never bisected. Before the LRT was routed under the hill, Macleod Trail used to run on the SE side of the cemetery where Spiller Road is now and Victoria Road used to run over top of the hill where Macleod Trail now runs.
