Your post is based on the assumption that bus corridors won't lessen car usage, surely the plan is to get more people using public transport and to have less single occupant cars clogging up the city.
We need to give people viable sf alternatives to driving in cars as a means of moving around the city and in particular in bringing children to and from school, will bus connects deliver that? That is the pertinent question here.
Have all the greenies factored in the size of the carbon footprint year on year of cutting down scores of mature trees to facilitate these new bus corridors let alone all the building works demolishing and rebuilding of walls?
One is reminded of all those green electric cars being charged by people having to use diesel generators for the electricity.
