I dont mean throw out zoning entirely, but reducing the way they promote single family housing only. I live in a county with a million people and 84% of the land is single family zoning only, I want to throw that bit out.
Also if done right you dont need to zoning for all those things. Transit development will drive denser, walkable areas all on its own if its legal to build those kinds of areas. All the city has to do it manage transit as these areas develop.
I'm not disagreeing with that, but high speed rail from Boston to Miami would be extremely practical. Efficient, fast, convient travel along that corridor reducing dependence on cars for city to city travel. And the area has both the demand and density to support such projects.
And while its impractical now, if it was built to cheapen regional travel in the region it could grow to high use spurning economic development.
I'd love to take a train at a reasonable pace from near to DC to my family in Pittsburgh, or to visit New York.
I might even enjoy a cross country trek to the rockies for skiing on a train, but it's never going to be an option.
East coast united states has similar population density to most of europe.
It's just out west we have a lot of empty land.
I agree, it seems like it should be easy to convince libertarians and conservatives with deregulations, but exactly how to frame that argument is tricky.
He talks about the intersection a lot, but the main problem with this intersection has nothing to do with the intersection itself. It's the surrounding area that backs up into and causes it to fail.
Citron ami goes for arond 8k in Europe, but I'm sure someone could find cheaper used.
And yeah taxes, fuel, and maintenance are more, but most consumers badly underestimate those costs.
Calling light electric seems redundant. Its like saying electric electromangantic radiation.
Drivers don't t have to look left on right in green, so should naturally look in the direction they're going, and thus see pedestrians and cyclists.
They also have time to spot them while waiting.
I like that cargo bike but damn 6k? That's close to cheap car territory.
The price fixing is only for steam keys which is completely reasonable.
Half of that is probably the 2.5kwhr battery, seems like 1kwhr would be a more reasonable range, 180km seems more than needed for most people.
