Also, there's still the same chokepoints on the bridge approaches. McBride is still only one lane to the bridge, 2 lanes merging down to 1.King George and Scott Road both lose one lane. Essentially 4 lanes merging down to 2.
At least the trucks won't take up both lanes as before. The bridge should flow fine but I still see there being the usual traffic back ups on the bridge approaches in the morning and afternoon commutes.

the only improvement is the bridge itself, nothing will change for commuters, the approaches have gotten much worse on the Surrey side from my experience, I was using it to commute from Surrey but the recent changes made me switch back to the Port Mann, I might use it on weekends, but what used to be at worst 10-15 minutes of being backed up turned into 40-45 minute backups with the changes.
