Nah, he's just a mechanical engineer who moved to the Netherlands and started making content on how much better the infrastructure is than the shitty suburbs of Toronto and a few other places, and did a few videos basically re-hashing StrongTowns content which was started also by a civil engineer iirc. I like his channel though. There are a few other YouTubers like CityBeautiful, CityNerd, who he's done collabs with and are in the Urban Planning discipline in some capacity.

- brailsafe 3y agoThe flatness imo only lends itself particularly well to their dutch bikes, but nothing to do with whether a region has invested in their biking infrastructure. Plenty of places are flat, and plenty of those flat places are horrible car-infested hellscapes that are falling apart. There's nothing particular unique about the Netherlands. Fwiw, I'm very much pro car-last infrastructure.
