I look forward to when this report comes out to find out that this opportunity will be sufficiently wasted...
I don't think reversing lanes are far-fetched since the city already has them on the Macdonald bridge, Herring Cove Road, and maybe some other places.

I think they're great. HOV lanes are good too. Space is at a premium in many parts of the city so the existing roads should be used as efficiently as possible.
