Really good question. One possibility that should be considered is free to use, but only during off-hours. It’s less than ideal to pack already-full trains even fuller at rush hour.
Similarly, it would be worth while considering broad road tolls, but only at rush hour. Push all travel that can happen whenever to less busy times.
