In > 2y being #CarFree, I completely flipped my understanding of #traffic #design.

All urban #streets and #roads should impede motor vehicle traffic as the number one priority.

#Cities are for community, not psychopathy. #Urbanism and #Architecture are for #PeopleNotCars.

Boxes on wheels will always be a necessary part of human #civilization, for moving goods humans cannot easily move under their own power, and moving large quantities, but we don't need or want most people to drive.

I'm jealous

They have the same bed length.

Trucks are identity and status symbols, not utility vehicles.

I don't like the new Hampshire street car lanes. They're taking away too much space from people actually trying to get places.

I repeatedly left comments during the feedback period that Hampshire St is too important to be handed over to a bunch of sitting-in-traffic hobbyists, but I guess the city is too busy catering to people who enjoy being late all the time to build some proper bike lanes.

Edit: to be clear - Hampshire should be car-free.

Spent some time in the beautiful new #LovePark in #toronto, previously an off-ramp for the Gardiner Expressway.

It's worth remembering these are the type of things we can build when we #TearDownTheGardiner. #TorontoWaterfront #PeopleNotCars

It's spring when it becomes nice to eat and drink on terraces outside of restaurants and cafes.

And what does the City of
Westminster Council do? Removes traffic calming and hospitality's tables, from St John's Wood High Street.

Now there are stupidly parked wankpantzers everywhere. 🤬
