Would be nice to hear details of the plan, because on the surface it sounds horrible.
  1. Congested streets are bad, but a lot safer than when the streets are clear and cars and big trucks come through at 100kph.
  2. The process to go have breakfast/lunch/dinner or shop in town: drive to a parking lot, wait on a bus, ride into town, get dropped off in town 50 meters from your destination, eat, walk to the bus stop, wait for the bus, return to the parking lot.
  3. The process if raining? See #2 above and add soaking wet clothes.
And what direction exactly does this 3rd lane flow? Bwahahahaha.
I agree that it's ridiculous and will never happen.
The swamp road would be more sensible and that won't work either.
