The average delay is only around a minute and a half. Northbound, travel times average a minute faster while southbound, the delays average just a bit over two minutes. The interesting thing is that delays are only experienced over 4 of the hours southbound and none of the hours northbound meaning that more drivers experience faster travel times than slower travel times. Even among motorists, there are more winners than losers with the trial. He also forgot to include the emissions reductions due to more people cycling instead of driving as well as the decrease in traffic delays and emissions due to fewer cyclists falling onto the bridge.
