    "Big Car is a confederation of industries such as gasoline, auto manufacturing, car insurance, lobbyists, asphalt producers, tire producers, and others, who work together to push a lifestyle that has made us all dependent on their products...The “American Dream” had become the world’s nightmare."

    Paris, an example to follow! I would like do see this implemented in my city, Luxembourg as well

  3. i finally visited the new park at 5m

    the walkway is really nice (we definitely need more car-free spaces! +bollards)

    as well as the street leading to to it. it's a narrow width and drivers naturally slow down. that's good traffic calming

    big ups to the designers! #SanFrancisco #transportation #landscapearchitecture #CarfreeCities #CarFreeZones

  4. CW: Radio 4 Urbanism/Climate/Comedy plug

    Just caught up with Rob Newman's new series. Excellent episode "Your Town Made Perfect" covering towns, traffic and climate change. Worth a listen. #LTN #CarFreeZones #TransportPlanning #TownPlanning #Comedy #ClimateChange #Radio4 #RobNewman #AfterMaryWhitehouse
