Another four or so lanes across the inlet would solve everything for the rest of the century. That's the difference between it and traffic issues to the east and south.

Are you saying that you are receptive to the idea of a CBD (?) waterfront - Lower Lonsdale crossing, of 4-6 lanes, presmlably a bridge (not a tunnel)?
That image was presented in the late 60s, and I am told it was reacted with shock and horror and rejection, rather like the Chinatown/Crosstown freeway plan.
But, hey, I agree. It's going to reach chokepoint sooner or later, and something has to be built. Would you go for a 4 lane bridge with the Canada Line on it?
