I attended the opening day of that bridge, and I've still got the "I walked the Fraser over the Fraser" sticker they gave out to mark the occasion. The extra shoulder lane was never promoted as being for rapid transit - it was always designated for future expansion.
If people are going to try to justify 10 lanes for the GMT replacement, they shouldn't be making the false claim that they're needed for rapid transit, because obviously they'll never be used for that purpose. Having to resort to lies to justify your position is a sign of a weak argument.
