I don't claim to have all the solutions, but these are just some of the ideas that should be considered as alternatives to endless freeway widening:
- More express bus service
- Commuter rail linking Phoenix to the East Valley and Tucson
- HOT lanes (allowing HOV lanes to be used by those willing to pay a toll)
- Congestion pricing (tolls that vary -- being high at peak, low or zero off-peak)
- Allowing more density so that people don't have to live so far from work to find affordable housing
