Those are residential areas. So, first thing to do is make it a 20mph zone. Next, make it one direction only for car traffic. Next, make a bicycle counterflow lane on the other side of parked cars. The first two are really cheap and would improve the quality of living immensely. Cars would go off the pavement walking would be much more agreeable, and house prices probably would go up. What's hard about those two? The third, a counterflow bike track, needs some serious spending. It would be useless without connecting these measures to other streets and especially giving extra care to intersections and traffic flow on arterial streets, but again, nothing too hard to tackle.Koenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17409336272282919407noreply@blogger.com
