Actually, that nowhere place then becomes possible to develop. And that development will increase traffic, on the new road and on the roads it connects to.
That's the real reason you build more and wider roads. But it's for some reason sold as a way to reduce traffic.
- mantas 7y agoOn this side of the world usually it's vice versa. Developers start building on cheap land with little infrastructure. Then increasing population forces government to improve infrastructure decades later. By the time construction is done, it's already outdated and overcrowded. Even if it happens your way... Is it wrong that an interesting location opens up at the end of new road? E.g. a restaurant or trailhead? Yes, it would increase traffic. But on the other hand, this would also let people do things.
