Disrupting a corridor will only result in people using other roads to get to their destination, it wont mean more people will use transit.

The Albert/Slater corridor has served as the rapid transit route to and through downtown Ottawa for the city's entire population (900,000 plus). Taché is one of four roads serving a western Gatineau population of roughly 60,000. Again, there is NO comparison.
There's no disruption of the corridor for people in cars; they get to keep their single lane of traffic each direction like they always have.
