I wholeheartedly agree that they should simply build the bridge in the original location. So did the transportation department when they made such a recommendation to council in the spring.

I remember reviewing a number of plans and drawings for it back when I worked at city hall. They’d make everyones life in Lethbridge easier if they’d just pull the trigger on that project and get it going.

Sure would make going to Home Depot easier if you lived in Riverstone.

Widening 6th Ave, again, is just stupid. Given the collevtive intelligence in the infrastructure department and city council, it sounds like stupid is the only thing on the menu lately…

I know they did, that is why I am peeved. Like the suggestion that they build the bridge to the North side, there is no houses that far north on the west side so what is the point?

Personally a bridge that goes from the far south part of Scenic to the West side. I think it makes sense to relieve the traffic flow.

But then I live in Edmonton where everything appears to be under construction at the moment.

That was the plan, but the City caved to all the complaining from Tudor residents about the proposed location, so they asked administration to come back with information on three scenarios.

Dawn,

A freeway is a high-speed roadway with no at-grade intersections. Whoop-Up qualifies between 4 St S and McMaster Blvd W; although it may be the world’s shortest freeway. :)
