Desire paths Desire paths can be paths created as a consequence of erosion caused by human or animal foot-fall or traffic. The paths usually represent the shortest or most easily navigated routes between origins and destinations. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desire_path

Especially to not get hit by cars.
speak for your own heart
it's a very calm dead-end street with maybe 8 houses and iirc speed is limited to 30km. You can walk in the middle of the street and you would still be safe.
There was even a hoop left in the street. If kids can play basketball there, i think you can walk safely. (i walked and cycled on the street. It was raining.)
edit: i'm on "fuck cars" too. This photo isn't about cars.
Aww you're getting downvotes but I am with you. Sorry bro. True desire path
Lmao the mouth-breathing rabid idiots from fuckcars are literally incapable of thinking. They just see asphalt and immediately start attacking anything in sight that moves.
Heart wants to not walk in curbside puddles, I'll bet.
Ah, good theory
Also to be able to jog on grass instead of hard pavement to help save my knees π€
But if you had to choose oneβ¦..
The heart wants a fucking sidewalk.
my heart wants a world without cars and asphalt roads, where there's no need for sidewalks, where every path is just a desire path and a chance to bloom.
who cares?
its like a haiku but better

The heart wants pavement eh?
there is one, on the residential side of the street, lining the houses, for those who need a pavement
That's probably what the urban planner who didn't put a pavement where people are clearly walking would say ;)
this may help that urban planner: It's a sound barrier between houses to the right and a road that's limited to 50kmh. Photo is taken maybe a hundred meters from the previous photo
Is the road part prone to flooding?
this was the only time i was there, i can't say
Pointless curve
It forces cars to slow down to navigate. A college I used to live by did the same thing.
Unless you're my dad
Seems like the park side is larger for it. The other side looks to be yards/fences, no point in giving the resident there a little extra lawn.
Looks like it's going around a lake?
