Critical Reasoning (CR) | Re: Urban rail systems have been proposed to alleviate traffic congestion,

Even if commuting trips contribute to more than 20% of traffic congestion, urban rail systems could still help alleviate traffic congestion by causing non-commuters to switch from road travel to URS. When the officials say that commuting trips consists of only 20% of urban travel, are they not assuming/ reasoning that, well even though URS was not effective in reducing this groups traffic congestion, but helped reduce traffic congestion caused by non-commuters by increasing their usage of URS. But they do not provide any support to show that non-commuter's use of URS did in fact increase.
