My brother was working for a company in Burnside a few years ago but he didn't own a car (his previous employer was DT, took transit) so his commute was horrible by the sounds of it, like an hour+ one way to take a bus out there. Pretty sure he quit as soon as another opportunity arose strictly for that reason.

Wouldn't this be a conflict with bridge heights for container ships though? It seems like cable-stayed bridges have relatively flat bridge decks so the approaches would probably have to be massive to get on it.
