Charles St GRT terminal redevelopment

You've never experienced one of these US customs plazas, with 5-10 lines of cars, each with 10-20 cars in it?



I really don't see this as a major issue. But we can just agree to disagree on this point.

I have experienced that customs plaza or a very similar one, but you're missing my point. There is 2.5-3 meters of space between those lines of cars, a vehicle could drive between those lines of cars (completely unimpeeded if those drivers were able to form a straight line anyway).

By Google Earth measurements at Queenston-Lewiston (where I have crossed) each laneway is >5 meters wide, you're suggesting to put two lanes in slightly more than six meters. That is clearly tighter with far less maneuvering room, even before you consider the vertical wall.
