If Saint Johners want to use this fact to cast shade on us, that's fine. It's simply a fact of life. As the city continues to grow, it will densify, but it will never have the built form of Saint John.
I'm OK with that.

The last time I posted about me marvelling at Saint John's ramps, some other Monctonians said they'd rather not see those in the city. Which is fine, but I do wonder how we can make our roads and highway ramps accommodate more traffic if we continue to densify for the next couple decades. I've been noticing the left turns into the TCH are getting really congested on certain days/time periods. Being a "new" city should hopefully also mean we are planning ahead, no?
