Indeed. Grey alucabond.

I'd have loved a cool pattern or mural.

That is not a shot of Surrey City Centre, it is Sim City 3000.

That section (720) of the 20 has been completely overhauled. The Turcot interchange was completely replaced.

Ironically it has been downgraded in status to the 136 (a regular provincial highway) from the 720 (an autoroute), even as the infrastructure has been considerably improved.

Saddledome's days are numbered. Too bad they can't keep it to replace the Stampede Corral or something.
