Three excerpted paragraphs from the linked to article. They read:

1. "The question is whether Ontarians were asking for an impossibly expensive solution to gridlock, or whether this a case of the engineering tail wagging the taxpaying dog."

2. "But in the run-up to the provincial general election earlier this year, Ford felt a need to brand himself as the anti-gridlock candidate, which he has tried with the Big Doug idea and his plan to tear out Toronto’s bike lanes (the subject last week of a scathing court ruling)."

3. "Flyvbjerg also point to the peculiar psychology of such politically freighted plans, which is that they tend to blind governments to cheaper and more easily executed alternatives. Such as, in the case of the 401: deploying outstanding east-west GO Bus service on dedicated lanes, which would cost a fraction of the Big Doug and provide some gridlock relief within our lifetimes."
