Bad intersection that would require $$$$ (St. Margaret's Bay Rd. and Prospect Rd.)http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&source=s_...id=VEE1G-EI8s3mkV4AVykCyA&cbp=12,45,,0,5
That intersection is easily upgraded.

The Shearwater Air Show has proven that this site can handle large crowds and has been doing so since 1948. Based on that traffic mobility I think Shannon Pk. would not cause traffic tie-ups. Exibition Pk. has the odd home show, Christmas show and Saltscape expo. These events snarl traffic.
I was unaware that we owned Shearwater or Shannon Park.

Nevertheless it is interesting that the roads there can handle traffic loads you mentioned, yet the quite identical roads plus 2 of the biggest multilane highways we have in NS seemingly cannot for the EP site. How bizarre.
