Is the theory that anything a city cannot afford, or chooses not to afford, should be cut?
For instance, bike paths.
If a city is not doing enough maintenance on the paths, then it proves
that bike transportation is unsustainable.
Or does it mean that the city should spend more money on bike paths and roads?
- xyst 3y agoNo … as mentioned it shows how car centric transportation is unsustainable. City should reinvest into downtown core. Build up, redesign city with bike lanes while reducing car lanes. Remove parking lots, parking garages. Slowly get rid of highways running straight through downtown cores. Cities need to stop subsidizing suburban living. Recapture more funds that was previously invested in “road/street” maintenance into more sustainable and environmentally friendly infrastructure (bikes, walking, improving bus services/lanes, rail).
