Reducing gridlock is a great idea, that can only be accomplished by increasing alternate transportation methods such as bike lanes, transit, and more walkable cities. Adding bike lanes has for decades proven to reduce traffic, increase business in areas where businesses exist, increase overall citizen health, and decrease pollution! There are many business associations that have noted that bike lanes close to their businesses have actually increased sales! More and more cars on the roads means that there is less and less space for them....building more and wider highways for decades has proven that gridlock just comes back. Increasing the speed limits on 400 series highways only does any good if they aren't filled with cars.
Get building better transit, actual 2 way all day GO trains from Kitchener to Toronto (that has literally been talked about for decades with NOTHING to show for it yet)...Eliminating cars from the roads and enabling better transit options will make the entire system move smoother and more effectively.
Stop throwing out ideas like tunnels, and listen to the experts on infrastructure development study - not big developers only looking for money for their land.
Serve all the people of Ontario, not just the Toronto wealthy. Keep the bike lanes, expand the bike lanes, build the transit and get people moving!
