    Expanding it is unsustainable. Maintaining major roads is not.

      That is premised on the notion that the expansion that has happened until the present is sustainable.

        It is moreso premised on the notion that highways and concrete passes/bridges have been recieving far insufficient maintenance for many years at a time.

        I am not saying “replace every old road” I am just saying “keep important roads usable.”
