Actually, it can. The third lane will be the one that becomes the slip lane at interchanges, while two lanes carry on through the underpass or over the overpass. Beyond the underpass/overpass, once the slip lane has re-joined, it can be 3 lanes again. The tram overpass would be the problem, but it's not impossible to fix. The bigger problem would be buying up enough land to fit the extra lanes.zap brannigan wrote:this can never happen since the anzac underpass is 2 lanes, as is the cross road overpass... south road will always be 2 lanes unless they decide to spend a shit load of money and redo all the over/under passes, tram overpasss and future tunnels and also buy all the land along south road.Ben wrote:What we NEED is actually quite simple. We need a non stop North - South corridor of 3 lanes or more, with no traffic lights, frieght/train/tram crossings.
Really, so long as you can get a non-stop trip for the length of the road, does it matter if it's 2 lanes and 60km/hour? It would probably work better than a 100km/hr road that has interchange traffic backing up on to it. What's the distance from Darlington to Regency Road? If it takes you 20 minutes, are you going to complain?
