General Road and Highway Discussion

Absolutely, but in terms of a time-benefit comparison, it make sense what they did. Laying asphalt to reopen to vehicle traffic is a quick way to eliminate some of the congestion, while finishing tree root planters in order to pave with concrete, etc, would take much longer, and you'd have to wait until thats done to paver the roads, thereby delaying ANY relief of congestion.

It's ironic that a rework meant to prioritize pedestrians and cyclists is finishing the vehicle component first, but in the end some congestion relief is better than none.

I'd also say that running the traffic on Regina makes it somewhat stressful to cross Regina on my bike. Worse than crossing King for sure.
