It's just that when people come to Saskatoon from the airport the first thing they see is an intersection with lights coming on to a freeway. This might portray that we are cheap, or can't afford an overpass. I know that Saskatoon is growing at an substantial rate, and I am sure that it is hard to keep up with infrastructure. I strongly feel that we need to get another Penguin Village in Saskatoon, but this time build it downtown in the Kinsmen Park field. It looks large enough.
I believe that modes of transportation wouldn't be such a problem if there are a sufficient amounts of overpasses (over intersections and railroads). The highway heading north to Martensville and the service road along side of the highway looks like something just slabbed together with out much thought put into it. I feel the "if you build it they will come" saying will portray largely in the amount of people that come and stay in Saskatoon.
Saskatoon has the potential to be a great city, however just like Calgary its growing out and wide instead of up. This makes it hard to get around without a car and the city sidewalks are non existent in some places.
I would love to see the people of this great city embrace responsible living and set an example for the rest of Canada.
I would love to see Saskatoon embrace the sustainable attitude and implement better urban planing and build bike-paths and more sidewalks.
@bic2k Saskatoon has a beautiful sky all year round and it would be a shame to block that by giant sky scrapers. However, there must be a middle ground. A balance between increasing the living density in the city and maintain the beautiful view of the clear skies.
@stiki123 if you want to keep those beautiful clear skies well into the future, the only answer is vertical architecture and a core population. (The reason why glass buildings are so popular here in Canada is our high hourly sunlight hour average per year, beautiful skies and reflective light.) The view wouldn't be ruined as long as the architecture is attractive and functional. Did you know that the city of Calgary is about the same size area as New York City? Grow up, not out.

@stiki123 I agree. To bad we have a community that wants to "preserve" the sky line. *sigh*
