They also presented the results of their own real-world driving tests, which suggested that during low-traffic periods the Kenilworth Access would be roughly two minutes faster than the RHVP as a route from the industrial north end to the East Mountain. (During high-traffic periods, the advantage would likely lie with the RHVP.)

This is my own experience: there really isn't much difference between the two routes, unless you want to get to the Linc, in which case the RHVP is the more efficient choice. OF course, if you're a truck driver and intend to drive across the mountain on residential streets only, bypassing the Linc altogether...

Concerns were also expressed regarding property values

The irony here is that keeping Hamilton as one big alternative truck route would probably contribute to driving property values down for the whole city. That can't be good for revenues, can it?
