A section of the Disraeli Bridge Roadway will aptly be called Bachman-Turner Overdrive following a dedication ceremony on April 18.

It better be the Bachman-Turner Overpass or I will be so disappointed.

Even if it isn't officially people should still call it that.

Even better - "Bachman-Turner Overdrive" will be the actual street name (which, upon further research, is strictly commemorative).

Yet another missed opportunity. I guess Overdrive still works as a road pun, but it isn't as satisfying.

Is it in a taking care of business section of town?

Honestly not really, but it's just about the best place in the city to let it ride.
