How are intersections reduced? Closing them off with concrete blocks to create dead end streets? Creating more cul-de-sacs?
I certainly don't want a world where every residential street is a windy suburban-style affair that goes nowhere. That just entrenches car culture and makes it impossible to run efficient mass transit.
- bombcar 5y agoEffective is stopping the cars at points but not the people - Queen Anne in Seattle has many streets that become stairs at points because it’s too steep. You can also have portions of the road that block cars but allow transit as necessary. Cars should be discouraged and forced to go the long way around as it doesn’t harm them much, and gives an advantage to walking.
