So you want to just give up? Granted, I just moved away from Barcelona. But they are doing some really awesome transformation of the city while I was there. Finally you, as a person-out-of-a-car, you can just enjoy your city. They are moving away from being a tourist theme park, or the office park for the rich people from the surrounding suburbs who of course MUST be able to race into their parking spot in the city center. The major is getting an enormous amount of shit for doing all this, and in general anything she does or does not, because car-proponents are extremely vocal about everything. IIRC she proposed a tram line on one of the car-arteries, and the neighborhood voted "no". Which is insane. Who wants more loud cars, less PT, less pedestrian zones? It should be "people who live elsewhere", and even "businesses elsewhere", because it has been proven that better access brings more customers. So she learned her lesson and just doesn't do binding polls anymore, she just does it. And it's fantastic.
