It still is. Traffic in lane 2 is always almost at a standstill at 4:30 while lane 1, 3 and 4 whizz by at 90+ km/h. It is much, much better though than it was - I breathe a huge sigh of relief every day when I get off 401 onto 8 and it opens up into 3, then 4 lanes. It's absolutely fantastic, and sort of unfathomable that a region as "small" as ours has such a massive freeway running right straight for the core.
