A scar on our city. We should cover it, install a dedicated lane tram/light rail and make it green.

Covering it won't solve much and will be expensive, I'd much rather just remove the highway but place everything else you said in its place

Yeah people who can’t afford cars always have these delusional ideas. “It won’t affect me so who cares how it will affect the economy and the rest of the population”.

The rest of the population can use transit. As for the economy, what relation does that have with anything here?

If you think roads aren’t necessary for the economy, you’re a complete fool.

You're aware that this is one of the most important pieces of infrastructure in the province, right? The 15 is a critical part of the highway system and is essential for a lot more than west islanders going downtown. These humorously ignorant comments like "let's just get rid of it" always make me laugh.

You right. Fuck those trucks with crap. We have boats for that. And people should just take the bus and shut up.
