Those are some nice Calgary projects. The City seems to have a lot going on in recent years.

A bit of background on the strange Rideau bike lane situation; the east-end of Rideau was completed about a decade ago before bike lanes became a "must-have" on every street, so the City doesn't want to rip that out. By having it cross the street and end where it ends, cyclists will, I guess, disembark and reach future bike lanes on Besserer towards the east and down Nicholas to the decade old east-west Laurier bike lanes. Far from ideal, but a big improvement over the what we had before.
