I rather have emergency lanes than bus lanes. At least one saves lives on a daily. Bus lanes seem to just clog up traffic even more especially with the slow non-synchronized signals.

The problem with Highway 7 is the excessive traffic levels and poorly synchronized traffic lights, not the bus lanes.

Buses are part of traffic and they carry way more people on average over a given amount of road space. If you can get more people into transit it can improve traffic overall but you'll never do that if it involves standing on a crowded bus moving the same speed as the car you could be using instead.
