There's a line of logic that more roads means more people on them, and end up with the same problem.
Think LA

Sure
I got you all solutions
Reduce a lane on the bqe hike up the tolls
Don't expand roads
Now you'll save the world because everyone will surely stay home

Alternatively they can consult yeshivas like BMG on how to avoid such problems in the first place.

Because they stopped twenty red lines before YU?

well there's the "G-d Factor".
Hashem doesn't like YU too much.
Before anyone kills me. I'm not saying the people who teach there are bad and im not saying that the students learning there are bad. But...
YU, the school, has been going downhill for a long, long, time. It went from a place where many of the Gedolim of last generation learned to a placed steeped in apikorsus, progressivism, and a whole lot of garbage. I can say with a certainty that YU does not have many brownie points with Hashem and it doesn't have that much longer before it goes completely off and becomes Chazzer Treif or shuts down.

Because no other yeshiva was foolish enough to do this

Quote

In 1970, in order to comply with laws regarding government aid to sectarian institutions, Yeshiva, in a move that aroused considerable opposition by some, including Rabbi Soloveitchik, officially became a secular university, changing the status of RIETS (the rabbinical seminary), the high schools, and related divisions to "affiliates."

Not exactly an article, but scary stuff (I guess a Google search might come up with some articles about it).
