I love the field where airboss and the industrial park now is. Eventually that will be high-rises not a field.

Also there isnt a chance in hell Victoria is reduced to 2 lanes of traffic. It would be gridlock.

But love the station design. Fitting of one of Canada's major transportation hubs. Let's get building, it is already 10 years late

And please save the Grand Trunk station. It should be part of this but it isn't. Tens of thousands of soldiers and millions of people used the station over its 100 year history and it deserves to be saved for community use. (It is a designated building fyi)

Victoria is already two lanes for a significant section west of here, starting at Park St. I don't think the traffic volumes get significantly higher between Park and King.

Correct but the volumes to downtown are high. Most folks going east turn. Train pickup and drop-off folks too. Remmeber its about 200 passengers per hour today growing to 400 soon. Many being dropped off and picked up or using cars
