Something has got to be done about Springbank Drive and Commissioners Road heading from Wonderland Road west into Byron. I don't normally come home that way during rush hour but yesterday I ended up there. Heading west on Springbank I hit a line of cars that wasn't moving just west of Wonderland, where it narrows from 4 lanes down to 2. I thought there was construction or an accident. As the traffic slowly moved along, I found out it was lined up solidly from west of Boler and Commissioners in Byron, all the way out to Wonderland. Pure volume - no accidents or construction.
The whole Byron area is becoming a gigantic mess with rush hour traffic, especially as both it and River Bend continue to expand. Commissioners was supposed to be widened by 2011 according to plans I remember seeing in the mid-90s, but I know there was a NIMBY protest against it.
