That being said, with the age of the tunnel and the volume and safety issues, it needs replacing. However I also think 6 lanes (with one each way as HOV) is probably plenty of capacity for that corridor. Then maybe another crossing around No. 8 road in the future.

6 through lanes is plenty. But I would say an extra add/drop lane (like the Pitt River) is definitely warranted (8 lanes total - 2 HOV, 4 general purpose, 2 add/drop).
If you have three lanes in either direction at that location, and interchanges at each end, you need those add/drop lanes.
