NYCDOT's plan does address this by not having a bottleneck. Approaching from the south, at Myrtle are 3 northbound travel lanes, then crossing the Parkway are 3 northbound travel lanes, then at 81st are 3 northbound travel lanes, then there is one additional lane just before Union to allow buses to filter into the travel lanes and cars in the travel lanes to filter out to turn right. Other than that little bit of mixing, there were 3 travel lanes, 3 travel lanes, 3 travel lanes...
Approaching from the north, at Furmanville are 3 southbound travel lanes, then at 66th Ave are 3 southbound travel lanes, then at 67th Ave are 3 southbound travel lanes, then at Yellowstone, Cooper, and Metropolitan are 3 southbound travel lanes, then at Rutledge there is the opportunity to pull off into the access road. But other than that little bit of mixing, there were 3 travel lanes, 3 travel lanes, 3 travel lanes...
Limited to 3 travel lanes in each direction for miles before. That's how NYCDOT addressed the problem.
