    What strikes me here are

    • cars are still allowed but heavily limited to when necessary or of very high utility (eg for certain kinds of delivery)
    • they have a car “interface”: car parking facilities at the edge of the town
    • Public transport is also limited as the city is highly walkable, which forces me to wonder how much the public transport v cars is a bit of a false dichotomy.

      It is also just a pretty small place, there’s less need for public transport when everything is within walking distance.

        Here in sweden a lot of towns don’t have their own lines and instead just rely on the buses they run to other places, mostly the town-town routes that run at regular (if sparse) intervals.

        Sweden is also a great example of how just having good non-car infrastructure isn’t quite enough, you also need to make driving annoying or people will generally just keep driving.
