You say that as though you think there isn't a significant economic benefit to having a more efficient transportation network. Having higher-capacity roads is beneficial even if they aren't toll roads.

You're assuming that having more roads makes it more efficient, but that's not necessarily true. If having less urban roads convinces more people to use mass transit, for example, it might be more efficient.
