I'll go right to the issue: a line going from a congested point to another won't be useful unless you were really lucky: nothing guarantees you that your Sims commute between those places, so the line would end being used only by the ones transferring from other lines.

I would recommend instead to look from where your Sims commute to this busy points, and to devise a route that serves those voyages. In any case, you can also make changes in zoning to back your route, adding some commercial lots close to the stations and increasing the residential density around the line, to reduce travel times and allow Sims to move closer to their transportation media.

Well, Sims use the stations if they link for jobs in somewhere, and this line would link for one of the biggest complex of offices in the region, so I think there will be some use. A great number of those cars are getting in there from places that I already have a subway station and they get there by car because they don't have to walk (line 1) or they have stations, but it don't reach there so fast, with transfer (line 2). I use a different interpretation of Transit Oriented Development, that means that the stations have already big buildings in its front, causing the heavy use that you can see.
