I love how people think induced demand is an iron clad argument against any road building.

What about the induced demand of going from 0 lanes to 1 lane?



Depends on where that 0 lanes is initially I guess. You can bulldoze a housing block to add a new lane, that's not necessarily an economic success.


It is if destroying those ten houses relieved a trucking bottleneck at the train yard.
