^ That's why I chortle when people suggest turning Osborne Village into a ped mall or making it a woonerf or whatever. It's a critical commuting route, you couldn't do that without doubling the capacity of Donald/Midtown Bridge and maybe expanding the Mayfair/Stradbrook connection to Main.

It's the same thing with Portage, maybe you can knock out one lane to accommodate RT if and when that ever happens, but that's it. That capacity is vital.
