Reply to comment by dpm25 in Why do we keep on increasing the number of roads even though statistically more roads create even more traffic? by [deleted]

Why are you being so pretentious about this, I’m just saying that this is not the same as just adding more lanes to a highway, which has one singular goal, to add more lanes. The goal of the bridge repair is to repair the bridge.

They are literally adding more lanes.

Literally.

You are trying to be pendantic about a literal roadway widening.

If roads need repair and they get widened does that not count as a widening in your mind?

Bit strange really as roads, bridges tunnels etc need repair CONSTANTLY.
