That is nothing compared to this. 30km/hr up a 4km long, 20* grade hill is a freakin' looooooooong time, especially when the limit is 110.

And as has already been pointed out, the extra lane in the causeway is only open for one direction, so already right there you have one section stuck in a single lane for the entire route.

Don't get me wrong; I think it would be a stupid move to completely shut down the middle lane, but you're making all the wrong arguments (or, at least, saying them in a manner that makes your opinion appear inane).
There is a difference between getting delayed due to real CONSTRAINTS, or unforeseen circumstances vs. being delayed because of inefficient process or some dumb politician decided to impose an artificial constraint for no good reason.

If my arguments are wrong, they'd be easy to refute. Often the truth of the matter is a bitter pill to swallow. I am not running for political office, so I don't exactly have to be diplomatic in how I put forth my points.
