I assume the sticking-point is Queen from Cannon to King... I mean, Westbound drivers from the Mountain being able to get all the way to Queen at King instead of going onto Aberdeen would be awesome, I'd agree. Cannon-Queen-King is the main westbound corridor to the 403 bridge.

And yes, Cannon-Queen-King is the westbound truck route (iirc, King isn't a truck route east of Bay or something), so converting the entire length of Queen and Cannon to one-way means butting heads with the city's obviously-influential trucking companies.

However, you're right that Queen south of King, (and especially south of Main) should be relatively straightforward. But again, we've a total lack of political will on the whole of council, and it seems like our downtown councilors are having trouble even extracting the simple stuff from them (the new traffic light on Aberdeen is great, but it's sad that it ended up being such a Herculean achievement on McHattie's part).
