Sarcee Trail

Early plans for the city's southwest ring road called for Sarcee Trail to continue south from Glenmore, connecting eventually with Alberta Highway 22X.

As part of the Tsuut'ina Trail project, the City of Calgary is also planning for construction of an interchange at Richmond Road.

Silver Springs Gate, a short road leading into the Silver Springs community, was formerly part of Sarcee Trail until the mid-1990s when plans to extend the northern leg of Sarcee southward through the Bowmont Natural Area and Bowness community to connect with the south leg were abandoned.

The renaming of this stretch of road was reported by local media as being intended to reassure residents that the extension plans would not be revived.
