I’m curious if you have any professional experience with this? How well does it accommodate bicyclist and pedestrian traffic flow? In Seattle they’re trying to accommodate these kinds of traffic instead of cars because it’s really expensive to build more streets. And we’ve learned over the past 20 years that optimizing for car traffic means making it less safe and harder to walk or bicycle.
Gee, Sydney here, I'd never heard of that. Sounds like it's to get buses and trams going faster.
We have some trams, mostly fairly new routes, but hardly any share the roads with traffic. There used to be a lot that did, until the 1960s I believe, but they got rid of them in favour of the supremacy of cars. We have good buses and trains (and ferries) here though.
