How about this for a solution. In the areas where they can to alleviate congestion Express lanes ABOVE 95 with limited on an off ramps at only MAJOR stopping points. We can make the lanes widers unfortunately so why not build overpass lanes right above. Keeping the trucks below with the large suv's. Only passenger cars and small cross overs allowed above.
To pay for this is simple stop cutting the trasportation budget and tell the politicians to stop giving tax breaks and credits to large corporations, politicians need to keep their hands out the tax box also and maybe money where it is delegated to go will get there to do the things it is suppose to do HELP HARD WORKING AMERICANS!!!
