Abstract:While increasing roadway capacity by adding lanes may reduce congestion in the short term, highway infrastructure capacity expansions typically increase demand in the long term. Accurate travel demand modelling is better able to capture demand for vehicle miles that is induced by expanded roadway capacity and limited alternative transportation options like pedestrian routes and public transit service.
