Thanks for posting the aerial video of the TG extension, Offshore. As for alternate routes - there was definitely a lot of blasting done here, but I don't think there was any way around it. Kenmount hill runs pretty much the entire length of Kenmount Rd so I don't think you'd get around that. Any further east or west and you'd pretty much be running through residential areas. This place is just to hilly and rocky!
Just imagine how simply things would be if we had the same geography as Alberta (east of the Rockies) or Saskatchewan.
