The St. Matthews extension is a good idea, and should help relieve some of the congestion in the area.
The intersection improvements are also badly needed - those are some of the most bombed out looking intersections in the entire city. I feel badly for anyone driving a car with a rigid suspension over those nasty craters.

Now if they could actually extend St. Matthews a little bit... extend it (or Silver) to Sharpe or Moray, and there, St James and Charleswood issues would be solved.
Agreed, the street looks like shit. I live just south of it and used to ride my bike on it all the time
Have you seen the section between Ferry and Route 90?
