There are two dimensions under which we can alleviate traffic problems. One is to increase throughput of roads and transportatio, and the other is to increase density and otherwise make efforts to allow people to live closer to their jobs and services they need.
The article would have us believe that only one of these things exists or could be useful, when in fact both can be true and both can help to improve the situation.
