Interesting, but to me that raises the next question - even if the city itself did not grow, how about the surrounding communities? I think most of the time traffic still increased significantly, because of much more traffic across the (unchanged) city borders into the surrounding communities.
It's called "Metropol-Region Hamburg" (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolregion_Hamburg https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolregion_Hamburg), it's not just the city itself.
- Aldipower 2y agoThat is is true, the complete "Metropol-Region Hamburg" has a total population of around 3mil. Not sure how it was in the 50ties. There are also a lot of commuters coming from the suburbs to the city center every day. Mostly by train and also car of course. IMHO the train must be even more expanded and improved. But of course not everybody is commuting. There is also a lot of work in the suburbs itself available. Those are mostly smaller cities with its very own life.
