why does adding more traffic lanes doesn’t help to alleviate traffic congestion?
In: 26
More lanes aren’t the answer. You need more exits. But not just more. You need exits in places that make sense which offer different ways to get to the places people want to go. And then you have to convince people to use the new exits and not the same one they have always used.
More lanes just means more cars in the same spot. Without more exits you still get more in than out.
Think of it like a sprinkler. It doesn’t matter how much bigger you make the hose if the sprinkler is only letting so much water through at once.
