It doesn't appear to have an extra lane on page 10 of the report:

Perhaps they're hoping on eventually getting back the extra wide sidewalk and in front of the US Embassy... assuming they're allowed to remove the bollards and there's no security issue.
Or they could just reverse one of the northbound lanes on Sussex north of York street.
If they don't do one or the other then I don't know what an acceptable reroute would be...
Maybe go west on Wellington and use the War memorial as a roundabout to swing back east on up the stub of Elgin back to Wellington - and then make a right on Colonel By?
Or go east on Murray and zigzag over to Rideau... except you're not allowed to turn left from Rideau to Colonel By right now. So instead - go east on Murray, south on Dalhousie and zigzag over to Daly ave and turn left beside the Westin Hotel.
