Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Townline Road
No, it's absolutely awful now, because the capacity loss is increased. We at least before had SOME hope that effective lane capacity could be maintained at 2x through the whole transition (provided everyone in the right lane immediately moves right, and then people in the centre lane have a brief moment to shuffle over).

Now, there is no crossover at all, so it is effectively down to 1 lane. Bad bad bad.

The new setup will be flawless because lanes 1 and 2 become the ramp itself. Lanes 3-5 continue straight through - utopia.
