I've lived in this city for 12 years, commuting by car and occasionally by bus, and traffic congestion seems to have gotten worse despite new bike lanes and subway extensions. But what actually moves the needle: building more roads, improving public transit, or simply charging drivers for peak-hour access? From what I've observed, some cities reduce gridlock with congestion pricing, but others just push traffic to side streets. What's been your experience with different approaches where you live?
