Yeah, but the BQE isn’t in random place America. It’s in a city which has less than 30% car ownership.

You could ban all private cars from the roads tomorrow and people in NYC would be getting around much faster (including those who currently drive) if you do nothing else but increase bus service and frequency, as they’re not log jammed because of higjly inefficient cars anymore.

Silly question from afar: could you tunnelify the BQE (no digging, just cover it!) and drop a park on top? Best of both worlds.

Seems silly to rip up roads when self driving electric buses could be running down them (or at least get their own priority lane).
