General Road and Highway Discussion

[MidTowner]

Sometimes good things trickle down. If another street where street calming would be justified in the real world, but not by the city's policies, can point to Glasgow and say that exceptions are made, that's a positive, I think.

I have a specific trip I take from time to time, usually on Sunday evenings, to visit someone who lives in Westvale. I take Glasgow its entire length for this trip and, when I do, I drive the speed limit. There is usually a queue of motorists tailgating each other behind me by the time I get to Fischer-Hallman, the first of which often glares at me when we pull up alongside each other there.

I only say that to say it's meaningless when the poster on reddit says the street "already has a 40km/h limit." I'm glad that some apparently influential people have learned that speed limits are useless and redesign is what really works.
