They should just close Lancaster at the tracks to motor vehicle traffic. Either keep a pedestrian/bicycle level crossing or build an overpass just for that traffic. With the new roads being built as part of the highway interchange to the east, and the bridge at Margaret, there is no need for Lancaster to remain as a route for crossing the tracks in motorized transportation.
I believe regional plans are to build a grade separation, they have already removed the Wellington -> Victoria section of Lancaster from the 2021 plan to rebuild Lancaster, in anticipation of that. That being said, closing is absolutely not in the cards, nor is a cheaper two lane configuration, the region is full steam ahead on VMT growth planning, so they'll be building for a climate disaster with this one.
