That's a short-term problem pressing for a solution. If it hapoens, the government will soebd the dough for better infrastructure, because it makes sense in many ways. It's much easier to come up with the money when trains are overcrowded, even though it would've been smarter to make the services better and more attractive to attract more users naturally. Humans are weird like that.

Also, I love that it happens. Public transport almost never vreaks even directly, money-wise. The profit lies in better connectivity for many people. Good for the economy and society. A long term strategy.
