One can't forget that one-way streets by design are underutilized for all except a single peak (e.g. AM or PM) , whereas a two-way street can be utilized for both outgoing and return trips.

When performing such analysis, to properly compare with two-ways, one should look at street pairings, not individual one-way streets.

This is another reason why one-way streets seem to be more congested to their users and are less efficient in terms of infrastructure utilization (need more streets to move the same volume of vehicles).
