Once the Mary Hill Bypass is completed, much of the westbound
traffic from this area would use the Bypass but until then it would
be forced onto the Red Bridge.

Council is hoping for extensive redevelopment of the
downtown area with high density apartments which will generate a
considerable volume of traffic. This traffic will be forced to

use existing exits from the City and will add to the congestion.
I do not believe that it would be advisable to open up large new
areas for development in other parts of the City until alternate
traffic routes are available.
