A tunnel to replace Barlow's access would have been at least three times as long as the one they're building, and we know what a pain it was just to get this one approved.
Once Airport Trail through this tunnel is open, you'll be able to take Barlow to McKnight to Metis to the tunnel. It's a bit longer than Barlow was, but I doubt it would add five minutes to the total trip compared to what Barlow was.
