I am concerned that most (if not all) examinations as to where we go with transport in the immediate future do not take account of the imminent full self-driving technologies expected to break over our heads within the next few years. These changes which with transform our societies will bring unknown changes to the way we organise transport - but most experts agree that the result will be far fewer vehicles, especially those owned by individuals (and so less "road use") and possibly different patterns of road use. These ideas don't seem to figure in the thinking of those who plan the expansion of our road system. It is essential that they do if we are to minimise misplaced capital spending.
