I don't see how you can consider options for the placement of new housing in the area without a clearer idea of the traffic implications of the various options and an indication of what should be done to ease current problems and offset the effect of the new housing.. The current analysis is very thin. It's not enough to say, for example, that more concentrated housing will produce more funds for infrastructure without having an idea of what improvements are practical, what effect they would have and how much would they cost.
