That's okay. Not every city needs to be equally car-free. Let people naturally gravitate toward the type of city they want, and we'll actually end up with more diversity than we currently have.
Yeah, I agree. I'm not actually against more car-free neighbourhoods, in fact we could do with more. Also more congestion charges, and other kinds of pay as you go road fees.
I just really dislike the intellectual dishonesty of headlines like this.
