Re: new roads don't solve congestion, examples needed

For info

Here is a great video of an action (credits to Bas Ruyters)

Friends of the Earth, Bral vzw, IEB and Greenpeace did an action at the 
Brussels motorshow on 17/01 to protest against the plans of the 3 
regional governments in Belgium to expand the road network.
We put up a road construction site in front of the entrance. Fun.
Belgium had until recently the densest road network in Europe, but it 
was overtaken by Malta, so now the governments wants to fight back with 
a plan to make Belgium THE logistical centre in Europe.
