The tunnel is to take you from the 102 inbound to Dunbrack St. It's purpose was to eliminate the weave/merge that used to be there with traffic coming from the 103 onto the 102. That is a good thing in itself.

But 2 things seem odd. The first is perhaps understandable, but they have done nothing to fix the lethal stop/left turn across traffic once you get to Dunbrack and want to head north towards Fairview. That remains the same as it always was, but I do understand it would be an expensive fix.

The other thing is harder to explain. There is a new widened ramp off the 102 of 2 lanes. The right lane takes you to the 103. The left lane takes you to the Dunbrack tunnel. Right where they diverge, the Dunbrack side has quite a precipitous drop combined with a slight turn that feels quite disconcerting. Once you get into the tunnel it is fine, but I predict problems at that diversion point.
I agree, went through there today. I had the same observation. I think they are going to have to do some sort of a fix there.
