The city can't afford to put interchanges at every intersection so lights it is.
There was no cheap way to get traffic to flow well from Holmwood. Traffic — in the suburbs, just the way it's going to be.
College is going to get bottlenecked anyways with two lanes being converted to bus lanes between Clarence and Preston in the next 5 years.

Which just demonstrates how clued out they are! The design of the neighborhood is wrong, just like Stonebridge was/is and they don't even realize their mistake! Idiots!
