Directly across Ryan St from Hildegard Drive is a substantial vacant lot. Immediately to the east of it is another substantial vacant lot.
There is more than enough room here to put a ramp on and off of Wheeler Blvd 'westbound' which is actually southbound..
This would do wonders to alleviate traffic congestion on Mountain Rd at Hildegard in the evenings, and Horsman/Berry Mills/Edinburgh in the mornings.
If they reconnected Ryan St to Mountain Rd with an overpass, the congestion of Berry Mills/ Horsman could be somewhat alleviated.. I think they'd have a difficult time getting the right elevation built up for an overpass though, unless the houses at the Eastern end of Ryan were purchased/moved.
It is high time the train tracks over wheeler be removed. I'm trying to think if I've ever seen any freight move across them other than to the irving bulk plant. This business could be moved elsewhere.
A removal of the tracks would then invite a complete remodel of the Killam Drive interchange, which is sorely needed.
