" ... the project director for the George Massey Tunnel replacement did confirm last week that everything is on schedule to have a new bridge in place by 2022.
[Geoff] Freer admitted it was long thought that a new crossing of the south arm of the river would simply transfer the congestion and result in longer lineups for the Oak Street Bridge, but those close to the situation don't believe that to be the case anymore.
He said less than half the traffic that goes through the tunnel actually ends up in Vancouver, so while a new bridge would serve city-bound commuters, it would also accommodate a considerable volume that stays in the Richmond-Delta-Surrey corridor.
[...] Freer said they're looking at both eight-and 10-lane configurations and it will definitely be built to accommodate light rail."
