Just post some stuff and don't spam.

They built a tunnel for the traffic which is a pretty typical strategy for these kinds of projects.
Which is basically what I said at the bottom of my post. But first off tunnels don't work everywhere, are incredibly costly, and local roads would still be needed to let buildings downtown have access.
