Why not make the highway 4 lanes all the way to Whistler?
Traffic volumes are much lower from Squamish to Whistler than they are in the West Vancouver to Squamish section. Currently the Sea-to-Sky Highway carries an average of 13,700 vehicles per day from Horseshoe Bay to Squamish, and 7,700 from Squamish to Whistler. Community feedback from Whistler as well as other municipalities along the corridor supported 3 lanes with an alternating passing lane and not a 4-lane highway north of Squamish.
