Most likely assuming that we stay on track with all planned expansion in
the corridor *and* follow the 2020 transit plan.  Oh, and what about
planned growth?  If we make the area too nice, it will grow faster.

It would be interesting to see that simulation without half the things
planned and throw the 2020 transit plan out the window. :)

Guessing congestion in a corridor far into the future is crazytalk.
There are no fixes for congestion but negative growth.
