Traffic Closures |
| Once a year here in Calgary, they work on a small stretch of Barlow Rd. It is a heavily traveled road with a lot of Transports and heavy rigs heading onto Deerfoot trail. That is here but I will guess it happens in a lot of towns and cities all around the world.
Instead of fixing it right the first time they have opted to fix it every year. That’s just plain stupid but that isn’t the bitch. The close off this section will really no real away around it but a back road. All traffic heading onto Deerfoot north has to detour and it is coming from multiple directions out of an industrial area. They close it off first thing in the morning and then open it up after rush hour at night.
All of this work could be done on the weekends and or at night, but no lets screw traffic for 3 or 4 days. This little event causes problems all over the city as people try to find a way around.
Calgary is built on the sector system which means that every area has limited access , generally only one or two ways in and out. When you close down major routes it backlashes traffic for hours.
For those who don’t know a sector system is designed to be a police state making it easy for them to contain anything they want. |
