The tunnel has become so expensive that there isn't enough money leftover for the BRT. Even in 2020, a BRT that didn't require a tunnel or a new bridge over the Bow was already expected to cost $2.2B:

Spoiler!

So, we have roughly 6B for the project. 2.2B for North and South BRTs. Downtown tunnel is going to cost more than 3B?
