You might not need the road anyways. If a major fraction of the population doesn't need to drive, you can make human-sized (instead of car-sized) roads and have higher density and lower upkeep.
And you can have trains that come much less often (like, say, once an hour) to collect the stragglers. Less wagons in the trains.
Hello, Tokyo has no trains from 1-5AM. So you can simply plan around it (either going home before 1 or knowing you'll be out til 5).
- raverbashing 11y agoNo, it's not going to go back to human-sized roads There are deliveries to be made, buses to ride (even with a good train infrastructure), people who can't take public transport, etc It's simply naive to think otherwise
- rtpg 11y agoHuman sized roads can still have cars, just not as many as a 4-lane road Plus if you can shrink parking lots to 1/2 of what they are you'll reclaim so much space downtown
