That's one good thing. LOL. I sure hope this is the vocal minority.
No, they weren't all against. But those that were are rightly dubious of HRM Traffic Authority's ability to replace it with soemthing that won't cause major problems. Look at the mess that is Bayers Lake as one person noted -- starting from scratch, they created an absolute nightmare and have done nothing to make it better. I think it is proper to have serious concerns about what will be done with traffic when the interchange falls down.
