General Road and Highway Discussion

(03-05-2015, 03:51 PM)MidTowner Wrote: You brought those streets up, and I'm not sure what you were suggesting. I guess you mean zoning, though we weren't talking about that. It's not because these streets are residential that they should be converted to two-way. It's because two-way is much better for walkability, and there is too much capacity here for the traffic volume. Erb and Bridgeport are terrible experiences near Weber, too, where they are predominantly commercial. What would you like to see happen to these streets? Unless the answer is "for cars to move as fast as possible," it won't happen while they remain a one-way pair too big for the traffic they carry.

Oh I agree with you that the present state is not good, and that two way streets are generally preferable.

All I'm saying is that Erb and Bridgeport are such a mess that just making them two ways won't make a noticeable difference. No one will walk on them, no one will park on them, they are thoroughfares thru and thru, regardless of one-way or two-way status.
