Because it seems a bit off to have freeways on the east side of Deerfoot, and west of Sarcee Trail, but make it a major road right jab in the middle.

Never going to happen, but it would be sweet though! But who knows... give us another hundred or so years and another 4 or 5 million people, it might be worth it!
I think the parallel roads would be a neat idea, you could have the 16th urban corridor complete with a street car directly above a tunnelled expressway for through traffic.
Im guessing that would make the ring road obsolete pretty quick, wasnt that one of its big goals to divert cross-town truck traffic?
