Making city streets & sidewalks safer & more accessible for humans on foot, in chairs, on self-powered & electrical wheels rather than allowing the dominance of polluting larger vehicles—what will those crazy Frenchies think of next??
I'm honestly jealous.
I live in a very walkable area of Kansas City, but it would be even better if there were fewer streets and more green space instead, but we Americans with our cars and our fat asses would never approve of something like this.

I have thought about destroying roads every day for years, every time I go outside. Not the whole road, just some key points to prevent through traffic and to eliminate some extra lanes. I see cars parked in the curb lane on both sides of a four lane stroad and I think, if traffic is still moving, those curb lanes could be removed and this could be a two lane road. Anyone know how to make TNT?
@melpomenesclevage One Idea I had was to take a big battery powered drill to make a few holes in the street. Then drive some rebar into the holes. Prepare a large diameter piece of bright colored capped PVC pipe about a meter long filled with wet concrete with a hole in one end for the rebar. Slide the PVC concrete bollard over the rebar and let it dry overnight. With proper planning, less than 5 minutes doing crime on the public road late at night. #FuckCars #Bollards #BikeLanes
