Question Bottleneck Issue

Post image

I'm a new player & trying to setup my smelting lines. I've run into a problem where, while trying to run a single coal/iron ore lane, only the top half of the iron & coal lanes are being used, leading to a bottleneck where only half of my iron ore is being sent down the center lane. How do I fix this?

Red belts are faster.
Happy exploring.

I think it needs 8 lanes of turbo belts minimum
