The logic for this is quite easy:

1. Get the current path
2. Strip that string down to only the first 2/3 chars
3. Goto this location in a new tab

Done

Edit: With the new Breadcrumbs bar visible you're only a Shift+Click(on drive letter) away from your goal.
Depending on how you planned to invoke that script it might even take more clicks than that.
