3 pm is not a metric. Try 5 pm.

The amount of money needed to build this bypass would be much smaller than the amount of transit needed to actually mitigate the need for the bypass. Having said that, there is a need for more transit, so keep building. And don't build any more BRT. It is not 2020s transit for Ottawa, it is 1980s....
