There are a number of other head-scratchers elsewhere in the region that really lead you to question traffic engineers' competence. One I regularly use is Frederick between Victoria and Bruce. It is 4-lanes in the middle, but pinches off to two-lanes at either end before the intersections with Bruce and Victoria. Volume along this stretch is nowhere near high enough to justify four lanes. It should be two lanes with turning lanes at Bruce (maybe), River, and Victoria. On-street bike lanes could then continue instead of being cut-off at Bruce.
