The transit priority light before the underpass already accomplishes close to the same benefit. Also suggesting Arlington traffic should use McPhillips is similar to saying Waverly traffic should use the Kennaston underpass as it was designed to meet that need.
No it's not really the same both Waverley and Kennaston are high volume roads, Arlington on the north side of the bridge is a low volume street.
