Clearly, if that is true, there is no need for an expensive and out-of-cost-control flyover. As both myself and others have suggested, some simple alterations at the Halifax end would be all that is required for you and your ilk to achieve the nirvana you seek by eliminating the poorly thought out and designed downhill loop-de-loop to Barrington.

I find it curious that decades ago a larger but similar grade-separated project for vehicles was proposed and designed at the Wyse Rd bridge connection to Nantucket but was decried as unnecessary. Just imagine how many tons of carbon would have been saved over the years if that had been built. That remains true even today.
