Promoting Bicycling, Walking or Transit Will Not Reduce Congestion

Traffic congestion is typically the number one complaint about Sebastopol. Being at the crossroads of 2 state highways and given the physical limitations of any expansion to the road network we have to live with what we have. The only way we are going to reduce congestion is to develop in a manner that people are able to reduce their automobile dependence. This reblog of a blog post from Dom’s Plan B blog is a good summary of why congestion is not necessarily a bad thing, and why efforts to improve congestion often do not have the desired outcome.
