Description

Traffic engineers in the US and Canada have complex guidebooks and formulas for everything they do, but somehow they still build places that are dangerous, expensive, ugly, and terrible at actually moving people. Jason (Not Just Bikes) and Ray (CityNerd) discuss how all this engineering still results in bad outcomes.All Traffic Models are Wrong (Strong Towns)https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2021/9/7/all-traffic-models-are-wrongWSDOT VS.
