Cities scale in 3 dimensions, roads only in 2.
We either limit buildings to 1 to 2 stories, or we find another way of moving goods/people that suits the 2050s, not the 1950s.
I'm 65, remember that as a teen I could drive St. Catharines to Yonge and Front in 1 hour and 15 minutes. Any time of the day.
I love my car, but know from watching 50-60 years of Ontario city growth that individual cars are not in the future of city-dwellers.
By 2050, we'll have the population density that some European areas enjoy today; we should learn from their post WW-II transport struggles, and how they are pivoting away from "moving cars" to "moving people and goods" so that infrastructure planned today meets the needs of Ontario in the 2050s.
