There’s always exceptions but generally I think a model where any street with more than 2 travel lanes and moderate traffic is better as a two-way, narrow streets with lower volumes actually work pretty great as one-ways.
Essentially use a series of alternating one-ways on locals to really make them impermeable to anything but local traffic with low speeds.
I’d Rather take 1 or 2 lanes of street parking plus a 1-way, instead of what Calgary typically does which is somewhere random between 0.7 and 1.7 unmarked lanes per direction, in 2 directions, and parking on both sides
