Deciding where to build #sidewalks based on how many people you seeing risking walking on the side of a #highway is exactly like deciding where to build #bridges based upon how many people you see swimming across a river, or deciding where to build roads by how many people you see #driving their #cars through the woods and fields.

You don't plan #transportation #infrastructure based upon apparent current usage. The lack of that infrastructure enforces low usage.
