I think the problem goes much deeper, engineers in most cases are just doing their job. Not that they couldn't do things better, they can, but it seems to me like this is actually a political problem. At some point in the history of the US it was decided that public transportation was not the way to go and instead every American should own a house in the suburbs and a car.
It's culture and politics that needs to change, not signs and lines in the roads. And this means the problem is more difficult to solve as it is not a tech problem but a people's problem.
