A highway camera photo shows traffic in FortMcMurray jammed in the southbound lane of Highway 63 on the north side of the Athabasca River. The image was captured at 3:11 p.m. MT, about an hour after an evacuation order was issued for four neighbourhoods. (511 Alberta)

In an evacuation scenario, more lanes would be better.

Not necessarily a good or safe idea to use the oncoming traffic lanes, but it could be worth considering.
