The future of our cities and earth depend on a lasting reduction of the personal automobile.
How is this best achieved?
Nope bike won't do it on their own, though they are certainly a huge part of the solution for younger and healthier people.
Effective, comfortable and safe Mass Transit.
The goal within a ten mile radius of any viable population center is this:
One should be able to walk no more than five minutes to and from a transit node.
The commuter should arrive at any destination within 15-30 minutes
The commuter should be able to carry and secure 10-20 pounds of belongings. (Tough one I know.)
The financing of this, simply put would be transferred from the billions currently wasted on propping up needless freeway systems.
