agree with this. if anything we need LESS roads, just make the available ones more efficient. and no more intentional time wasting (10 years to fix rond point mkalles? ...)

FT, doesn't that remind you of Bachir Gemayel's visions? It's a big shame that nothing has been done yet, and to think of it, if we bridged the mountains together, from North to South, if the GBA (Greater Beirut Area) was served by a proper metro system supported by a ntewrok of multi storey parking systems, all these traffic jams wouldn't be happening. But we need to remember, that the average Lebanese brain doesn't help much either, he or she would park their cars right next to their beds if they could, so brains must change too.
