Question
S-to-J phase transitions can cause this phenomenon in a model by Boris Kerner. This phenomenon can counterintuitively get worse in the classical example of Braess’s Paradox, which is similar to how network expansions can cause an “induced” form of this phenomenon observed in many projects planned by Robert Moses. This phenomenon can be reduced via grade-separated junctions and ramp (*) metering. ANPR cameras are used to enforce namesake “pricing” schemes for contributors to this phenomenon exemplified by London’s CCZ. Policies to reduce an extreme form of this phenomenon common in grid layouts include laws fining people who “block the box.” For 10 points, name this problem from urban planning that can result in gridlock. ■END■
ANSWER: automobile traffic [or car congestion; or car traffic; or road traffic or freeway traffic; accept traffic jams or traffic congestion; accept congestion pricing; prompt on gridlock or jams; prompt on induced demand by asking, “What phenomenon does induced demand lead to in this context?”]
