CITING THE CURDINT PEAK HOUR CONGESTION ON THE LION ROCK TUNNEL ROAD AS AN EXAMULE, MR SO SAID THAT IN SUCH CASES, MORE ROADS WOULD NEED TO BE BUILT AND THAT IS WHY THE TATE'S CAIRN TUNNEL IS PLANNED TO RELIEVE CONGESTION AT LION ROCK TUNNEL.
"BUT TRAFFIC LANAGEMENT MEASURES CAN PROVIDE RELIEF EVEN IN SUCH A SITUATION TO CERTAIN CATEGORIES OF ROAD USERS. THE BUS LANE ARRANGEMENT ON THE SOUTHBOUND CARRIAGEWAY OF LION ROCK TUNNEL ROAD IS AN EXAMPLE OF HOW SUCH A TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT MEASURE PROVIDES IMPROVEMENTS TO THE JOURNEY TIME OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT USERS, THE COMMISSIONER SAID.
