What if rather than bury the Expressway, a few new parks were built to span key points where the Expressway is already effectively below grade? Something to connect Stanley Park with the Memorial Auditorium property, or perhaps Bechtel Park with Bluevale and/or Breithaupt Park, or even something west of the Sunrise Centre to connect Forest Heights to the parks south of the Expressway. If those look too difficult, then at the very least, a couple multi-use bridges at a key points would be a great start. I do recall hearing about the City of Waterloo identifying spots just south of University that would allow a trail connection under the Expressway, but the costs were too high.
