Looks like it goes right through the middle of Wahta, can’t imagine that’s going to be received well!
It’s like they just picked two points on a map and drew a straight line right through them without bothering to ask what’s in between. I understand the need for the line, but come on, there could have been even minimal routing work done before going to the community to avoid obvious problem spots like this ahead of time.
