The transition towards the EV should have been started in the 1980s, so that by now more people could have a choice.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plug-in_electric_vehicles_in_Norway#Bus_lane_congestion There will have to be sepparate EV & bus lanes. Otherwise, without enough space for EV, bus & HOV lanes, there will be even more congestion.

The Lions_Gate_Bridge is a 3 lane joke. There should have been a parallel bus or train tunnel built decades ago. The new 4 lane Pattullo_Bridge will open without EV, bus & HOV lanes. Thus, busses, trucks & cars will all be funneled into a 2 lane each way bottleneck. No emergency lanes even though the main hospital for that part of the region is on the NW side of the river.
The new 8 lane George_Massey_Tunnel wasn't designed to have a provision for a future rail link. There will be a half-assed bus lane each way, but there should have been 2 bus & HOV lanes each way. So trucks & cars will be squeezed into 3 general lanes each way, when there should have been an extra truck lane to & from the port.
