I’ve wanted to say this for a while:
In hindsight, we shouldn’t have allowed Victoria Avenue to be built up. This way we could have put in a free-flowing interchange at Ring Road and Vic Ave and grade-separated TCH all the way from there to Balgonie, but clearly that ship sailed long ago. Back then, if people couldn’t even foresee the need for a Ring Road and for interchanges with exurban commuter towns (until recently), something like this would have been too extravagant for them.
I read the comments and was thinking that if the departure and destination aren’t anywhere inside the city, the bypass should be the way to go. But yea now that you guys have pointed out, the bypass is a bit too south.
