Cool! There's one under construction in Niagara Falls, 403 @ Glendale.
As the article says, the neat benefit of this style of exchange between a cross-road and a highway or major artery is all of the turning is removed from the signalled intersections, which are reduced to simple stop/go alternating traffic flows; most crashes at signalled intersections happen when cars are turning and crossing a traffic stream.
It's also made such a difference in traffic in the area. 10 years ago, it used to take you up to a half hour to get through that area when you were on Macleod

Yep, the first time I took it it was a little bit weird but not even all that confusing if you just follow your lanes

I’m very glad this overpass has reduced accidents. That is, of course, the goal. I do, however, reserve the right to hate this overpass.
What do you hate about it?
