America has Traffic Engineers. The Netherlands has Transportation Engineers. One is concerned with moving as many cars as possible, the other builds transportation systems. In this podcast, I'm joined by Steffen Berr, an American Traffic Engineer turned Transportation Engineer who now lives in the Netherlands. We discuss the myopic approach taken by Traffic Engineers in America, and how it ultimately ruins cities.

Steffen has a great article that is worth reading: https://nextcity.org/urbanist-news/america-has-no-transportation-engineers

Ja, komisch. Offenbar kann auch die "Landbevölkerung" mit reduzierter Autoabhängigkeit überleben. Und mit wenig Autos, braucht man auch keine #ProtectedBikeLanes, sondern einfach nur gute Planung.

California Cycleway (1900) (en.wikipedia.org)

I came across this bizarre project from the dawn of the bicycle age. On the one hand, it looks good, right? Ambitious biking infrastructure not unlike the gorgeous bridges you see in Copenhagen or the Netherlands. But on the other, it looks like a precursor to the later American highway system: large, elevated, and cutting straight through areas.

The bit at 9:22 is also really interesting, it comes from this video from the 60s, and it's proof that induced demand isn't something we figured out just recently, people back then already knew that it would happen.

I think making the ownership of larger cars more expensive is probably one of the best ways to make them less attractive to the average driver. Whether parking fees, taxes or other methods are the best way remains to be seen.

Not Just Bikes

1129 readers
1 users here now

An attempt to recreate the /r/NotJustBikes community on Lemmy. I'm just reserving the Community Name, other folks (for instance the /r/NotJustBikes mods?) are welcome to take over.

NOTE: This sublemmy (?) is in no way related to or affiliated with NotJustBikes, Jason Slaughter, etc.

#RULES

1. Be nice. Please.

I know it's the internet, but be nice. And report trolls & spammers.

2. No memes

No memes, image macros, or low-effort posts. These are easily upvoted, but they pollute the subreddit very quickly.

POSTING MEMES WILL RESULT IN A TEMPORARY BAN.

3. Stay on topic

Try to stick to posts and comments related to the themes of NJB videos, or content creation. Things like urban planning, mobility & transportation, social equity, Dutch culture, etc..

4. No Trolling

Go troll somewhere else. We don't need that shit here.

5. No comment screenshots

Please don't post screenshots of stupid comments as a post. We all know there are ignorant morons online, we don't need to bring even more attention to their stupid comments.

6. No vehicular cycling

I have no patience for advocates of vehicular cycling. You can talk about vehicular cycling, but if you promote it as an alternative to safe bike infrastructure, I will ban you. You can post that crap somewhere else.

7. No people being hit by cars/road violence

Do not show videos or pictures of people being hit by cars, or other road violence. We don't need to see that shit. We know cars are dangerous, and many people have bad memories of car crashes. Keep it out of this subreddit.

8. No tone policing

We don't need any more tone police. If you don't like the tone that Not Just Bike takes in his videos, there's a very easy solution: stop watching them.

9. No internet drama

Don't spread or promote drama over what has happened on the Internet. You're spending too much time online: go touch grass.
