So WestConnex was totally going to solve traffic in Sydney by adding more lanes for cars. Just a few teething problems on the Rozelle Interchange and it'll all clear up, they said.

I wonder how it's going?

"Gladesville and Drummoyne locals say gridlock is worsening in their suburbs following changes to improve traffic flow through the notorious Rozelle Interchange, with drivers using local streets as “rat runs” to dodge congestion."

Oh dear...

Maybe one day we could get radical and do some urban planning with some integration of public transport, removing SUVs, trucks from peak times and blocking traffic in residential areas.

Roads induce demand and therefore increase congestion in all adjoining roads.

Sure, you could pour your milk faster with a bottle that's the feet wide, but you're still putting it into a tea cup.
