We saw this coming on this forum.
A "backdoor" into Granite Drive and the new Costco was necessary for access and safety issues, but the city did the connection to McLaughlin on the cheap. McLaughlin beyond the TCH is little more than a cowpath (in poor repair), and dumping all this traffic onto that street was bound to be problematic. McLaughlin needs to be widened, repaved and curbed to just beyond Granite, and the province should be expediting a new McLaughlin/TCH interchange to boot.
As the Granite Centre builds out, this problem will only get worse...........
