I imagine traffic is much better in the shoulder seasons, only ever go to radium in the summer or to go snowboarding in Panorama (which is rare).

We definitely want the best people building and designing it. The detour isn't the end of the world either.

It sucked any time the highway was busy though, especially if there was any rockfall recently. One thing I always liked about that stretch was seeing big horn sheep and mountain goats, probably saw something 50% of the times I drove through there...
