Check out Amsterdam. You don't need to ban cars, you just need to make bikes a preferable alternative. And as has been mentioned all over this thread, check out the YouTube channel called Not Just Bikes, for a ton of good videos on the subject.

- rhino369 5y agoAmsterdam is my point. If it were founded in 1906 instead of 1306 it would look more Los Angles. It's very hard take an area developed around a car (everywhere in America since 1920s) and make it bike preferable. You basically need for the area to be so run down that you can start from scratch. Like a taking a formerly industrial area and then only zoning it for mixed use, high density residential/commercial use.
