Looking at the yellow line route, unless it's much faster than I imagine (there aren't any schedules posted yet), I can't see many daily commuters to DT using it. But I'll be happy to be wrong about that.

Well that's my general feeling on it as well (and why we spent ~$100m to build an underpass for a dedicated bus to achieve that is another discussion entirely), but I was hoping to be wrong. I just figured that maybe the other routes would have some evidence or someone who lives near them could tell us of changes and such. You're probably right though. Just being the finished with the construction will make things feel better, even if they're not really!
