I'm shaking my head at this photo by @AmericanFietser from the US, where "School St" means 4 lanes for car traffic.
Here's some maps from the Sydney Tramways Museum, from when Sydney had one of the world's largest tram networks.
Along with the Sydney Harbour Bridge, visionary urban planner John Bradfield also designed a large expansion to Sydney's train network.
I love how car stans talk about full self driving as the death knell to public transit as if trains and busses can't be made full self driving.
Higher density urban renewal projects often face criticism because of the bland or ugly buildings that get put up. But as a recent Sydney design competition shows, it doesn't have to be that way.
