This is one step towards enabling a better standard for street design (NACTO: https://nacto.org/publication/urban-...-design-guide/). The standards that are part of NACTO can’t really be put into effect without changing things like residential speed limits.
Farrell and others are trying to get the city to a place where we are on a path to vision zero.
You may not agree with this, but there are a lot of people especially in inner city wards, who want to see alternatives to car infrastructure and street design available. Many people in Farrell’s ward bike and walk to work downtown, and want to be able to do so safely. I’m sorry, but that is not a BS project in my mind.
I ask you to take a moment to think about this from the perspective of someone like that. |
The issue at hand is that you can't paint the suburbs with the inner city brush. What's not a BS project for inner city can still be a BS project for other parts of the city that have different infrastructure.
