> Yes, however there is little urban planning for whole metro
Paris biggest infrastructure project for the past 20 years is called "Grand Paris" and revolve entirely around the whole metro. Actually there is literally no urban planning not involving the whole metro. And yes, lowering the speed limit involved multiple consultations with the prefect and the region because it impacts the whole metro.
Considering Paris without its metropole doesn’t make sense. Paris intra-muros is ridiculously small, one eightieth of London, 80% of San Francisco.
- Saline9515 2y agoLe Grand Paris...mostly doesn't involve Paris, as it's a new metro loop around it. Besides, what your say about the speed limit is false, the mayor didn't wait for the State's answer and decided unilaterally. The State and the region didn't agree with her: https://www.lemonde.fr/politique/article/2024/09/09/anne-hidalgo-annonce-que-la-vitesse-sur-le-peripherique-parisien-sera-limitee-a-50-km-h-a-partir-du-1er-octobre_6308486_823448.html https://www.lemonde.fr/politique/article/2024/09/09/anne-hid... https://www.lepoint.fr/politique/la-region-ile-de-france-refuse-de-voir-le-peripherique-de-paris-limite-a-50-km-h-11-09-2024-2570063_20.php https://www.lepoint.fr/politique/la-region-ile-de-france-ref... You can consider as much as you want, it is not unified. The result is that Paris has an anti-car policy, but the neighboring towns are very pro-car, creating a system where Parisians can't own one, but have to bear their neighbor's who use them to get into the city.
- StopDisinfo910 2y agoLe Grand Paris is the loop and the prolongation of all the inner lines deserving it. It very much involves Paris as its name implies. > Besides, what your say about the speed limit is false, the mayor didn't wait for the State's answer and decided unilaterally.

The article you quote says the opposite of what you pretend. I invite you to read the paragraph "Une décision sous le contrôle de l’Etat, rappelle le ministère". It explains in details than the mayor could do nothing without the state agreeing to it. > You can consider as much as you want, it is not unified. It is unified. The city and its suburb are one economic unit. Where do you think all the service workers live? You have to be an extremely narrow minded inner city dweller to fail to see this. > creating a system where Parisians can't own one, but have to bear their neighbor's who use them to get into the city. I kindly invite you to check the average salary of Paris inhabitants vs the one in the suburbs then take a minute to think about what you just wrote.
