Yeah, widening will definitely not happen, there is no right of way available, they'd be demolishing buildings. That would never happen for cycling infra. It is remotely possible the region could do a road diet to 3 lanes, it's totally feasible with the traffic volumes, especially once the new Highway 7 is built. Much more likely however is to buy all the houses on one side past Park St. demolish them to widen the road for more cars. And because the priorities of our regional transportation master plan are to provide multi-modal, sustainable, transportation options, clearly the answer is we're only going to widen the road for cars.
