Instead of building one more lane we build two. FOUR! above and below! EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK IS LANES.

Yes. Instead of publicly funding trains he convinced people that he would "build underground highways that would never have accidents or traffic or collapse during a California earthquake."

You could also consider getting every office worker a lorry. They can have an desk in the back and work whilst sitting in the traffic jam.

Then we can get rid of all the office buildings to make more space for the lorries!

Probably also adapt this method to work on your housing shortages too.

They could call it "The Big Dig". It will be such a success!
