Traffic Jam To End All Jams Is Coming
Detroit April 19. The United States faces a looming traffic jam as auto production outpaces road construction. Since World War II cars and trucks could stretch 74,000 miles end to end, while road mileage remains about 3 million.

Dietz proposes a 10 year program up to 21 billion dollars for new roads and three more billion for upkeep, funded by broader road investment. The auto industry underpins one in six businesses and one in seven workers.
