The Not Just Bikes YT channel recently observed that building new walkable neighborhoods in the US and Canada is not legal. The existing pre-war walkable neighborhoods are all we are going to get and they are expensive. We made walking to s

I do think vision habits matter for near sightedness. The human eye, like all mammal eyes, seems adapted for far vision. To bring the focal point in, the ciliary muscle must contract to change the shape of the eye. When it relaxes, the foca

I just don't understand why cities in California won't let go of single unit zoning. Single unit is the most expensive and least efficient zoning rule. Getting rid of it would bring housing costs down. Ever visit a beautiful city

Car culture apology bullshit. Why aren't there safe places for bikes and peds on those roads too? Why should cars have all the space to the point where it is practically suicidal to be outside a car?

You should check out the NJB you tube links. Stroads aren't fast for car travel. If you want a fast road, design for that. Stroad design gives you the worst of both worlds: slow and terrible for anything other than driving/parking

That's an old argument, the "vehicular cyclist." Only 1% of people are brave enough to do this. For bikes to have a significant mode share, it has to be more comfortable than "just mix in with the high speed SUVs."
