Expand that out to the greater Houston area to include everyone who drives to work every day and you have a highway system that needs to accommodate 10s of millions of people using it every day.
It also works in reverse: Slowly remove lanes and sooner or later it will somehow accomodate everyone that needs to use it. Either by making the inner city more dense or by businesses moving away and distributing more.
7.8 million people in the Houston metro area, no shit the infrastructure is huge.

Yes, but y’all have ungodly car infrastructure to accommodate for the lack of anything else. You make LA look like Europe
