The less capacity a road has, the more people choose other alternatives.Investing in other means of traffic, like bike lanes and public transit.

What's the solution?

No. There simply isn't enough space in cities.

Can we solve traffic by adding more roads?

Traffic becomes a lot less painful

<ul><li>first observed in the US, in the 1930s</li></ul>Once the road is clogged, people seek alternatives, like bikes, buses, and trains.Once the road is widened, people find that driving is faster again, thus switching to driving cars again.

Induced demand

A developed country is not where everyone drives a car. It's where nobody needs a car to get around.

Don't forget:

If we widen the road, there is better traffic flow for a few weeks or months. Then, it's jammed again. No matter how much we do this, the road will always have traffic jams.
