Can we just get a map posted again? Text descriptions of this interchange are impossible to comprehend

Indeed, it shows Edna not being extended. Now that I think of it, of course it’s not being extended.

However, it appears that the intersection where the ramps join Edna will now connect to a road that will run under Victoria St. and up to Wellington. Problem with my idea: the new road runs under Victoria St. and therefore cannot be constructed until the new longer Victoria St. bridge is in place. It’s not obvious why the Bruce St. extension can’t be built (raising the intersection could be done over a relatively brief closure) but my short detour idea does not work.

I’ll be interested to see how they punch the new roads under the railway. Presumably there will not be a lengthy closure of the railway.
