The plan is actually to sever Raliegh at Donwood to the south and Gilmore to the North (so no intersection). They are also severing Springfield Rd after the access to Dunits Drive to the West and just after the automotive businesses on the east end by the lake (so no intersection). There is only the possibility of 4 intersections - Henderson, Rothesay, Gateway and Lagimodiere.

The Rothesay flyover might be a no go because they underestimated the cost of moving all of the utilities in the area to accomodate the underpass. Apparently the actual flyover would only cost approx $4 to $5 mil but the prep work might make it cost prohibitive.
