you can look at any area in halifax and see some fucked up retarded shit. best part is NO ONE is happy with it. even the most cagebrained morons really dislike it because the roads are badly constructed and all go nowhere. and the few that do have ridiculous grades or do some bizarro shit that results in regular pile-ups. also because the roads themselves are insane and it's a hick province anyway everyone drives like complete ass in the name of "politeness" which just means you will get T-boned by a drunken grandma who thought flashing her high beams behind you meant that she was going to turn right across three lanes of traffic
it's unironically like if a child played Sim City 4 for the first time and you're trapped in his Rush Hour Expansion U-Drive-It™ Cyber Prison
even the bike lanes proposed by turbo leftists are all insane and retarded, they're all on huge hills, none of them connect to eachother properly, and most of them are either on quiet low-speed neighborhood roads that never needed one to protect cyclists from traffic or are flanking a fucking highway (also the highway doesn't actually go anywhere useful and is only like 500m long but everyone takes it because Google Maps tells you to since it's marked as the highest speed road possible)
>>2048018"urbanism" is a political movement and "urban planning" is a snarl phrase, but city planning or even just road design is the most underrated form of engineering by far
civil engineers are a close second, can't tell you how many places i've seen lately that seem to think road drainage is fucking lostech. how hard is it to make a road that ISN'T flat
