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.
Someone's going to have to do a lot of lobbying to get that exception, and therein lies the issue. People in less posh parts of town don't have the ease of influencing politicians and staff to get their way despite policy.
Oh, I think they do. It's not just one or two projects that have been derailed (like LRT phase 2) due to neighbourhood opposition. (Notice I didn't say "N...Y"!)
