Villager guy here.

Every time they use buzzwords (such as human friendlyness or pedestrian
friendlyness) to justify changes in urban management, they end up doing
something that manages to both make the city less industry friendly and less
inhabitant friendly.

At the same time. It is deserving of merit, it really is.

There is a big problem that Urban Administrators don't understand, and that is
that when you take something away from the population, you need to provide them
with an alternative. If you remove cars from a neighbourhood because you want
it to be for pedestrians only, you need to supply them with new means to move.
Otherwise you get aberrant behaviors, such as car traffic being banned in
certain areas, and people having to walk from a faraway parking to their jobs
through crime ridden areas.

The war on cars is irrelevant, anyway. Soon, affordable energy will be a thing
of the past and we will be back at using bulls and charts for moving from a
village to the next XD

I am very happy of being a rural redneck.
