Thanks.
Hopefully, all the of the Bell Boulevard development planning goes well.
Aside from that, it would be nice if Aerotech Drive was extended eastward parallel to the Maritime & Northeastern pipeline corridor to eventually meet the existing Highway 212 near Devon and become the new Highway 212, with the existing highway south of the airport turned over to the HIAA (to make way for further southward runway extension and to striaghten up and streamline the 212's alignment), barring any unstable ground in the area east of Aerotech Drive/south of the airport.
(From what I have seen, some of the dirt/mud wilderness roads near the gas pipeline have had patches of dirt/mud sink by up to 2 ft in a period of 6 months, with the overall erosion there getting me wondering if there's high amounts of Gypsum in the soil south of the Airport, since Gypsum breaks down when exposed to water, which is what caused a few buildings in the New Glasgow area to be condemned and demolished. I hope the gas pipeline itself is fully stabilized from landslide risk. Lest we have another Beardmore, Ontario type explosion.)
