TTI: Urban Mobility Information: 2007 Annual Urban Mobility Report

The 2007 Urban Mobility Report builds on previous Urban Mobility Reports with an improved methodology and expanded coverage of the nation’s urban congestion problem and solutions.

According to the report, San Antonio would need to build 52 miles of new roads a year to maintain current levels of congestion. Our traffic growth rate is exceeding our road capacity growth rate by 30% to 45%. I don’t think coordinating traffic lights is going to solve our traffic problems.
