Separated track/paths helps keep up transit speed on core routes. Drive the cars out of the way of the trams/buses through design and strict enforcement will boost speed and reliability , and boost ridership.

In light of this change, local governments (if capable) will need to step up, along with nonprofits and perhaps other donors. Too bad it was not transitioned smoothly.

If there is to be an all season road from Gilliam to Churchill, significant planning for operations would be needed for places for refueling, pitstops (eating, overnighting perhaps). Need to sort staffing, emergency planning. Its not as simple as adding a gravel road in a deep existing network.
