A lot Not much can happen in 27 seconds.

Would you believe that at noon today, the Anthony Henday only got 27 seconds of green light at the Lessard Road intersection.

That is completely unacceptable. That the Freeway that is supposed to be Highway 216 has lights is already atrocious, but that you have less than 30 seconds to clear it before it turns red again is just inexcusable.

Drive down 104th avenue at 109th street, and I'll bet you those lights are more than 30 seconds in duration. I know the dumb way they built the southwest Henday (ie. no P3s) guarantees we'll have lights there until 2018 or some ridiculous date, but surely they can make Lessard traffic wait at that light for at least a minute or two!
