Will Bus priority intersections create more traffic jam?

I am living in the new-built southwest community where the road is already packed by cars and people because of rapid increased new population. Will the bus priority intersections created more traffic jam on the road? Will city build new road for bus priority intersections, or using existing busy/jam road?

I think the idea is that by creating mass-transit routes that people will switch over and there will be less drivers on the road, easing congestion. The majority of cars have ~1.5 people in them on average, which is a huge waste of space. Mass transit alleviates this by transporting more people in less space, faster!
