I blame the guy for radicalizing my views on urban planning.

It's a good thing.

I’m saving this one for later today when I have time, but came here to say - when I visited Toronto I was struck by how bad the streetcars were. The way they’re done is like busses, except they can’t detour because rails, and they block two lanes of traffic at many stops because they run in the middle two lanes. So they’re held up by car traffic and traffic signals, and themselves contribute to car traffic by blocking the road. And they allow parking in the outside lanes. It’s a bad system. They should give the trams dedicated space. Take the cars out, put in a bike lane and give the trams space.

But isn’t this the city that’s ripping out bike lanes

exiting a streetcar into traffic. wut.

When I saw the first clips from Toronto I could not continue the video. Actually painful...

Not a good recommendation. I was hoping for a relaxing NJB video from the Netherlands, instead I was screaming at my screen, getting more and more infuriated with every new chapter. And haven't even been near Toronto in my life.

See you later, I have to go find some Valium.

Wow, now I'm wondering if there's any place that does it worse than Toronto. Goddamn.
