NDP were definitely in power then. Not sure how much one can blame them tho. They still mangled the hospital problems.
Nah, traffic isn't that bad. The problem is that they want to expand the north and north-east, which is why they want 11A and NHC project in place (the yellow portion of the map), but this was recently delayed again due to the bids for construction coming back many millions higher than budgeted. This thing has been delayed mutiple times, and the City now has themselves backed into corner with costs. Should have done it after the earthworks for it were completed 10 years ago.
Not really a ring road either. The entire project is just another 30Ave. Plan is to have traffic lights and what not.
The yellow portion of the map is what is needed the most.
