Yup.  Those roads aren't great.  Lucky for me, I live on the southside of town, so going down 41st or 49th and then onto the Marine Dr / highway works out pretty well  Wink

4th Ave is not as bad, but like Tony I prefer Marine.

I'd suggest 41st and then the highway.  Marine Way (east of 41st) is single lane

Isn't 41st under construction for repaving right now?  Or is that just more the east end (Rupert area)?

I think they are finishing up or done east of Victoria Dr. now. But not sure where they will be working next.

Ahhh ok, I got stuck for a right turn off Rupert onto 41st a week or so ago.  No biggie because I just detoured down 42nd, but slightly annoying lol.

But new roads = less bumpiness in my 3 Smiley

I've avoided 41st altogether -- it's either 49th or Kingsway until they are done with all the repaving

One of my friends lives right off 41st, and I get all confused with the side streets, so I find 41st is the easiest to get to his place. Smiley

And kingsway scares the crap outta me lol

41st is really convenient (Earles and 41st is my hood) but ever since they started the road work, which seems like it's been going on for ages, I had little choice but to avoid it (both in terms of traffic and the huge raised manholes)
