Yep. Induced demand is a nuanced concept that's been perverted by a certain community of activists into "science says you can't build enough roads so let's not build any!!!!1111". The truth is that you can, in fact, build enough roads to reduce congestion. It may be too expensive. The road land use fraction may be too high. There may be political problems. All of these factors have to be taken into account before deciding to build more roads. Nevertheless, it is physically possible to build enough roads, and anyone who doesn't acknowledge this basic reality isn't having a serious conversation.
