This really should have been done as part of building Hunt Club in the first place, so I don't have any objection to it. That said, the fault for the fact that it needs to be built at all can be better dumped on the MTO's doorstep. If there had been an interchange at Russell/Ramsayville rather than at Anderson, Hunt Club could have just been extended to Russell and we wouldn't need to add an extra interchange. The Anderson interchange really doesn't seem to have any purpose at all except to fill up space since there is virtually nothing in any direction for it to serve. A few people from Carlsbad Springs might use it but I suspect most use the Boundary Rd interchange (they would have been better off with an interchange at 8th Line or even Leitrim). Even with the way-distant future extension of Earl Armstrong Rd I doubt the Anderson interchange will be much used; a new interchange in the vicinity of 8th Line is more likely.
