Deerfoot Trail / Glenmore Trail Interchange

[Mazrim]

I drive Deerfoot and Glenmore every day. A cloverleaf wouldn't solve anything there. There's a reason they removed a couple loops at the cloverleaf at Glenmore and Blackfoot.

Not directed at you in particular O-tacular, but it really grinds my gears when people tell me that we should build more cloverleafs and that Parclo interchanges are worse off. (Most don't know what they're called, but I get the idea. One guy called them "the one with only 2 loops" which is pretty good). Usually the quickest way to show examples of the old cloverleaf interchanges on Highway 1 and 2.

- They need tons of space.
- If you don't have that space, you get really short weaving distances.
- You have to get to speed while dealing with people trying to exit in the same lane and slow down.

Parclo interchanges generally hold more volume, at the loss of free flowing traffic on the cross road.

The design of the Crowchild/Bow/Memorial complex is worse off in my opinion.
