Interesting idea mcphish. Could be something worth looking at, similar to Regona's bypass. Couple of issues first though:
1. This province already has massive amounts of infrastructure deficiencies. Add in a brand new multi billion bypass is not gonna make things better
2. Perimeter, unlike Regina, isnt completely a loss - most issues are resolvable by splashing money at it. Regina's Victoria ave. would have been a fortune to upgrade so it made some sense to build a brand new highway.
3. Most traffic on perimeter is local, so infrastructure upgrades to perimeter will need to happen regardless of this bypass
4. It would cross in the red river flood plain whereas perimeter is protected. Flood measures would have to be implemented ($$)
