the road capacity over the river needs to be atleast doubled, anyone who says otherwise is not living in reality.

if this lasts a month then the economic damage will be huge, though its not like we will ever see real numbers since its hard to measure...but it will be there.

and now just imagine a major accident on Port Man or Alex Fraser that would shut down a couple lanes during rush hour. if bin laden is watching then right now he can kick a western olympic city where it hurts. i mean just imagine if just one more bridge for what ever reason was shut down, this entire city and region would be the laughing stock of the entire world all the way until the olympics.(though even bad publicity is still publicity)
