Both Cliff Slater and Panos Prevedouros have said BRT which will take multiple lanes from King and Beretania streets would be a traffic nightmare. That of course changes when they tried to kill rail in the past by proposing a BRT system of their own. BRT, elevated Rail, building another twelve lane freeway, light rail express buses, tunnels, underpasses, overpasses, freeway widening have been extensively studied over the past forty years. Every supposedly new alternative has been run through computer simulation. In the 70's the city blocked off streets in town to simulate light rail or BRT. As one would expect it was a traffic nightmare.
