awesome piece John. It really is idiotic how our city has been damaged over the past 5 decades to satisfy out of town trucks over local residents who may actually spend money in our community.

I must say, however, this is a brilliant idea:

So you start driving eastbound on Main, expecting to fly across the city without stopping. But you find out that the city has changed the streets around a bit. Instead of King St. being eastbound the whole way and Main St. being westbound, they swap directions at Queen, James, Wellington, and Wentworth, so you have to keep jogging back and forth between the two.

This might be the only way we'll ever get rid of the shortcutting trucks. As you've mentioned, the highway network is complete and despite political lies, I mean promises, we haven't made a single change to our trucking routes.
