Increases in congestion at popular drop off / pick up sites are not necessarily bad. It could be that dropping people off is the new bottleneck because the rest of the road network is less congested, and now there are more trips (i.e., the road is providing more value because it is more efficient).

A study that measured door-to-door time, and the number of passenger-miles per hour would be much more useful.

I’m not sure why traffic engineers refuse to use metrics that are directly related to the quality of the experience for the people using the roads, or the economic value delivered.
