Three lane wide, two way arterials work in other, bigger cities (we don't even have to go that far to see them, Toronto is just around the corner).

Is the problem that Hamilton is too small for 3-lane 2-way arterials - and too big for them too (since they work in smaller towns)?

Hamilton is JUST the right size that they won't work here!

I'm just playing devil's advocate here. I actually like the idea of main street being a 3-lane one-way (with 1 or 2 lanes of parking during off hours) with wider sidewalks and a fully separated, and separately signalled 2-way bike lane.

But to say the 2 way idea it's a "non-starter" makes no sense.
