A tunnel would cut traffic out of downtown area. The idea was to replace the viaducts. Im suggesting a tunnel, any improvements to transit would not apply in this area.
You know Vancouvers transit isnt that bad. You're lucky you get a bus every 15 minutes. Most cities dont have it as good as Vancouver. My sister has lived there for well over 10 years, never bought a car.
