I've thought of that, maybe tieing it in with Hwy 901, the only thing is the eastern Calgary approach has the lowest traffic count of the 4 major entrances - it would be a tough sell to build a new freeway that stretches east of Strathmore.

An alternative could be a seperate Strathmore bypass, simlar to the bypasses around Vegreville or Portage La Prairie.
