Pinkie Road → Regina bypass – I noticed that the Government of Saskatchewan is constructing the Regina bypass (see: http://www.reginabypass.ca/), an outer beltway for Regina; however there is no article that pertains to the entire project. The Pinkie Road article talks about what is now the west leg (a.k.a. Area 1) of the project (http://www.reginabypass.ca/project/map-facts/); I'm wondering if the article should be expanded to cover the whole project and renamed Regina bypass?

 * Support. It appears that this article has always been primarily about the future expansion and not the current Pinkie Road.  If the whole project is termed Regina bypass, a move seems in order.  Any reason not to move?  —  AjaxSmack   19:19, 19 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Support. This article was created at a time when Pinkie Road itself was the main project, and the south and east phases of the bypass weren't actually happening yet. But as things stand now, the south and east phases are underway — and we can't really justify having an article about the whole project and a separate article about the Pinkie Road segment. So, yes, we should move and expand this article accordingly. I think the right title might be "Regina Bypass" (both words capitalized) rather than "Regina bypass", though.

 * Support. Agree with Bearcat to capitalize Bypass as is done on the two websites linked above. – Reidgreg (talk) 18:55, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Scope & Cost
Under Scope it lists 12 overpasses, though it would be more accurate to use the word interchanges. The total number of bridge structures is 36, which includes the 3 built under the former west bypass project. Several of the bridges aren't even at interchanges (4 for Wascana Creek, 8 for rail lines). It doesn't help that the government's own website got this wrong.

The listed cost in the intro for the project is misleading, though it is more accurately described in cost section further down. The actual cost of construction is $1.2 billion. The contract value is $1.88 billion with the difference representing 30 years of labour, equipment & materials for all types of maintenance from snow clearing & mowing to road resurfacing during that period. The project itself would just be the construction. Once construction is complete it is no longer a project, and remaining cost is simply operations. https://www.saskatchewan.ca/residents/transportation/regina-bypass/regina-bypass-project
