Why?
I mean yeah, transit expansion necessary. And if you plan to actually make the streets impassable to delivery vehicles then I guess stores need freight access, but just to ban or severely restrict private cars?
the photo shows what appears to be 7 lanes. I think you could reclaim a fuckton of that lol. I'm not saying you have to fill it all in with buildings and have no streets but 100ft wide streets is a lot of space to play around with.
look at the cars in that photo and tell me more than 10% are commercial vehicles.
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
