Wouldn't work. We're familiar with the idea of induced demand spatially, as in building more lanes generates worse traffic congestion, but it would work temporally, too. Make more road capacity available by using the lanes we have at different times, and they'd just generate traffic congestion at different times.

By the way, I read recently that Houston no longer has a rush hour. It's just congested through the whole day, now.
