What also needs to happen is a true alternative to the single occupancy vehicle through the tunnel, which means transit, and if transit is going to be an alternative then it needs to be given priority over SOVs, which can't happen with the current configuration.

Can you give an example of a crossing (IN NORTH AMERICA) that has dedicated lanes for heavy trucks? What is a dedicated heavy truck lane? I’m legitimately trying to understand what you’re proposing. So if a semi truck crosses the bridge and it isn’t in said lane, it gets fined an amount of money? How does this work?
