TripleQ beat me to it, but here is a more detailed clipping from the EA pdf from the website that's since gone offline. I agree that it's a bit overkill, but whoever mention there was already a "high capacity" interchange here is overlooking the fact that it only has "high" capacity to go westbound on Wellington. It's actually quite a poor interchange going eastbound, as it exists today with a tight NB->EB ramp and a left turn from SB->EB. Aside from cost, I think the biggest drawback of this plan will be Victoria/Frederick st. accessibility. It will be a bit of a hike (+ multiple lights) to get from Frederick on to the expressway, especially to southbound KWE. Not to worry. It'll be 10 years before ground is broken, if ever... I've never heard of any actual funding for this project. |

If the website is offline, how did you find this? Was it saved on your computer? The EA website was running less than a year ago, but I don't think I saved the document (ESR) to my computer. Thanks for posting it by the way for those like me who were looking for it once again. |
