Brick streets are better. https://urbanists.video/videos/watch/a9fd7709-fb2d-4c2c-9037-1ed0f7ff3efe Brick streets are better streets. Slower, safer, quieter. The city is resurfacing a street in our neighborhood that’s typically loud with fast, dangerous traffic. With the street torn up you can see the bricks beneath and folks are driving slower. If only the city would leave it this way!

What bike infrastructure we have is often built by big developers based on renderings from architects rather than actual transportation engineers. Bike paths are "ammenities" to draw tenants or shoppers rather than actual infrastructure, and of course, they often stop after a few blocks.

Why bother using pavers for bike paths? I wonder what their rationale is.
