You are ignoring the fact that the population is growing at a good clip, so even if you drive modal split and it doubles and doubles again you still end up with more car drivers. The population of Halifax will hit 600K between 2023 and 2033. There will be more cars, even if half of all new residents start using transit that is still tens of thousands of new cars.
No one is more supportive of transit and cycle infrastructure than me. I'm not talking about new highways, but there to say "don't change anything" is silly. I for one as a cyclist look forward to the Cunard/Chebucto road realignment through the Needs parking lot at Windsor, this is just one example of a needed small fix that is good for everyone.
