Even Enterprise Way which the Clement Ave extension would be relieving is not horrible and was my preferred route over Harvey Ave during rush hour.
I think South Perimeter Road is also a potential corridor as the province did not confirm the location of a second crossing.

Meant to respond to this a while ago, haha.
I definitely agree that it is not the city’s responsibility to build a freeway, that should be 100% provincially and federally funded.
I just hope that they build such a road with a future freeway upgrade in mind.
And yeah, flat out crazy that one councilor saying that a second crossing isn’t needed...
