Well, I did it... took me 20 minutes of clear, smooth sailing from Pitt Meadows to Glacier Dr. Going the normal route with the MHB backed up to the pedestrian overpass, it would take half an hour just to make it through that wad of traffic to get onto United.
Not a massive gas savings, but hey, it's the company vehicle

So what's your point? Like someone else said, it's not some magical bridge that does away with accidents... and like I said earlier, it doesn't matter if you make a road 10 lanes each way, an accident will always fuck things up just because all the idiots have to slow down and see what's going on. Doesn't matter if it's a bridge or a regular section of freeway, you just can't fix stupid.
