>>2023274I mean what you're functionally arguing here is that wide thoroughfares through densely populated areas such as in LA- which have a track record for being both dangerous and deadly for all road users- should have no change in layout. LA already has seen growth in it's public transit ridership for, say, a BRT lane to be an example of a reasonable addition to several existing streets (they have actually already one such project planned).
Taking out a lane or two on these for another mode of transportation and/or adding more defined median between traffic directions + pedestrian bulb-outs would really only improve the usability and safety of the street.
Based on your other posts in this thread, you appear more concerned with oppositionally defying the topic than actually being interested in engaging with it lol
