      The series that was just rt'd is common sense & involves thinking through things a little, something very uncommon to most people as illustrated by pearls like thishttps://twitter.com/hrnext/status/995167807854673920 …

      We always build smaller roads than we need . Busy corridors like Mum-Delhi or Mum-Blr-Chennai need 8 lanes high quality expressways instead of current 4 lanes . large cities need 14 lane expressways which cuts through city center from 8 directions .

      This genius idea was tried out in many places including Singapore but then Lee discovered that no matter how wide he made the roads, the traffic always filled up. So he decided to crackdown on cars (against dumbocratic opinion) & build the MRThttps://twitter.com/hrnext/status/995167807854673920 …

      You can also control scheduling http://theanti-puritan.blogspot.com/2017/01/civilization-sans-traffic.html?m=1 …

      That may work in societies where the ruling authority is powerful & people r all inclined to stick to schedule. Not a lot of countries fulfill those conditions now. In theory, gov't can also give incentives for working remotely in jobs where it's possible. Congestion pricing on

      roads with the price passed onto employers would achieve something similar but leave them more scheduling leeway. So a powerful company like Google may be able to pay more to have it's employees get 1st dibs at rush hr. Companies paying for employee commute already happens in

      Japan where they do pay for ur pass but not if u commute in by car (afaik). They also pay for long distance shinkansen intercity travel.

      Because I am interested in what works in practice in most countries today. Congestion pricing works similarly except through financial incentives u r modifying the time people choose to commute. It's not enough for an idea to sound good on paper but also in practice. Do u think

      that idea is implementable as of today in most countries? If for e.g. PRC implements it & it works, then I would be very impressed
