I mean… I had written something about 5 extra lanes… then I got stuck wondering if that was per-side, and decided to solve my mental conundrum with an Elon Musk joke…
It’s cool though, we can put a 5 lane elevated bikeway in the middle… that’ll fix it 😉
But I mean, congestion usually has a place where it begins, adding more lanes behind it makes 0 sense. Or perhaps removing lanes would make more sense, as then cars wouldn’t have to merge in such big numbers.
In reality, the answer is trains. Tracks everywhere, and very frequent runs.

Friend, the only solution to traffic is fewer cars and better alternatives to driving.

Trains, trams, bike lanes walkable neighborhood, even busses. Anything but goddamn cars.
