Cul-de-sacs could easily be built with connecting bike/pedestrian pathways if that was something the developers actually cared about.

- _delirium 10y agoThat's pretty common. I lived in a suburban neighborhood in Houston for years and the back-to-back cul-de-sacs always had sidewalks connecting them, so it was only with a car you'd have to go around the long way. As a result it was actually a lot nicer to travel through subdivisions if you were going somewhere by bike/foot, rather than going on the busy main roads.
