Building roads does decrease congestion. Just don't place them randomly. Use simulations and modern traffic engineering. Do you think that inaction build the Netherlands?

The netherlands did a lot more than just build roads. They built bike lanes, transit, walkability and made it legal for density to exist in their city, all things that north american cities resist as if it were the plague.
