111 Street was originally part of the 1963 Metro Edmonton Transportation Study (METS), which proposed a downtown freeway loop and feeder routes, including three southern approaches from Highway 2 via 111 Street, Calgary Trail, and 91 Street / Mill Creek Ravine.[3] As 111 Street was constructed, a wide right-of-way was integrated; however the freeway plan was ultimately cancelled. In the 2000s, the LRT Capital Line was expanded and constructed along the median and opened in 2010.[4]
