I'm just back from a the first of three meetings the ministry of transportation is holding about the Hanlon.
I've never seen a process like this. The residents are frustrated with the proposal to replace intersections on the Hanlon with interchanges, flyovers or road closures, as they made abundantly clear a few months ago. The ministry has responded by throwing the door wide open and asking residents what they want. The meeting facilitator said several times that it isn't just a "tweaking" -- that they're free to make all manner of changes. It'll be interesting to see what comes out of the process.
Read more tomorrow, and over the next couple of weeks as the process unfolds.
My two cents, we need these interchanges... the time it takes to get from one end of the City to the other during peak periods TRIPLES on some days. Just think of all the carbon reductions that can be made from ending all the stop and go traffic...
