    Didn’t mean to be a dick sorry! I get where you’re coming from now, eliminating all cars, my thought was just even if none of the commercial use changes you can get rid of like half the lanes easy. rail freight, underground rail, cargo bikes, etc. would all be great to expand too though to get rid of the rest

      It’s all good. I have zero issue with reducing the traffic in the city. They are incredibly dangerous within cities. It’s just really hard in skyscremovedr dense neighborhoods to eliminate adhoc services without providing some kind of replacement beforehand. I don’t understand the rationale of driving a car into Manhattan if you can avoid it. They already have plenty of public transit. I haven’t lived in Manhattan for 20 years and NYC for 10 so I don’t know how bad it is now. But like, it can’t be that bad.
