о "полезности" дорожных революций:
In short, the authors find that building new urban highways simply increases traffic volumes -- not in some general, intuitive sense, but in the sense that a 1 percent increase in urban highway space increases urban road travel by precisely 1 percent.
1% роста числа дорог приводит к 1% роста трафика.

We find that the welfare gains for drivers of building more highways are well below the costs of building these highways. This conclusion follows, not from the high elasticity of vkt to roads, but from the fact that new roads do not reduce the cost of travel sufficiently.
строительство новых дорог не очень заметно снижает стоимость передвижения.

We ... identify three important sources for this extra vkt: an increase in driving by current residents; an increase in transportation intensive production activity; and an inflow of new residents.
