Walking, bikes and scooters.

again, this is not europe. we don't ride bikes, and we certainly don't walk.

  • Yeah, that’s the root of a lot of problems in the US.

    But pedestrian infrastructure is a very simple problem to solve, even in the US. Just look at how the market responds to public transit projects in the US —- developers trip over themselves to build projects in response to the induced demand.

    Likewise they also responded to the reduced demand as a result of ripping out public transit infrastructure in the 20th century. Which is why doughnut-shaped cities are common in the US.
