This is in a city of 175,000 people. And in a “liberal”, West Coast, US city. You really can’t get away from this stuff in North America.

The 401 is 18 lanes total in one section going through Toronto. 4 express lanes and 5 regular, add in more lanes when they exit and enter.
It is a ridiculous highway because all of that and it is still a fucking parking lot every day.
One train running past every 5 minutes would change a lot of people to transit instead of sitting in their cars.

We're going to fix traffic I swear
There is a doctor who episode where people live their whole lives caught in a massive planet wide traffic jam.
No, that was a David Attenborough special
lol I remember that episode!
It wouldn't, unfortunately. My city got Amtrak service back a few years ago, and sooo many people I've talked to are like "I'm never taking a train again!" because they caught a delay ONE TIME, even though they don't bat an eye sitting still daily on the interstate.
At least Toronto has 3 million people. This is a city that routinely holds 1/3 of its population in its own football stadium.
