    This is working from the premise that cars belong on these streets in the first place, which I don’t agree with.

          I’m aware what community I’m in, and I’m trying to have a conversation with someone that has an opposing view to mine. If you think my intention is to be disrespectful or play the “gotcha” game, I’m not. Legitimately curious of your view and opinion

            I believe the stance is more public transit.

              Walkable cities, more trees, public transit. Like, I can deal with it, man.

            Cars are a completely unnecessary luxury in a place like the intersections that are used as examples in the article. When the foot traffic is so heavy that 15,000 people are in the area crossing through there in an hour, cars should simply not even be in the picture, let alone given the majority of the space. The roads should be used for trams/trolleys and pedestrians at that point. Cars are point to point transport or through traffic, and they should either have been parked elsewhere or rerouted around the area with the highest traffic.

            You can read ‘Movement’ by Thalia Verkade if you want an insight into this community.

            If you’re not a book kinda person, look through YouTube channels @NotJustBikes and @AdamSomething
