No one serious about decent public transit, reducing personal automobile use or transport by bike lives in Houston. In addition those 6-lane highways are all toll roads so they shouldn't be counted as subsidizing private car traffic.
- hombre_fatal 3y agoLike any city, Houston has its own set of pro-pedestrian urbanists who are stuck here and are forced to promote the changes they want to see. Very few people are able to shop around for cities based on their car culture ideals. > In addition those 6-lane highways are all toll roads 6-lane means total lanes, so 3-4 in each direction like Richmond Ave or Westheimer Rd in Houston which you have to take just to get to the gym or grocery store. But I think you need to go to Houston on Google Maps and look at all of the freeways that are 5-6 lanes in each direction bursting out like tentacles from the center in all directions. It seems like you're not aware that these exist?
