Yes, the changes to the transport alignment you referred to in the original comment are likely to be on a much larger scale than a century, absent some far more intrusive infrastructure changes than the EV..

Consider the Roman and Medieval patterns that still persist in much of the European cityscape.. Ironically, these make for a much less expensive return to non motorized personal transportation (which was never a good fit for cities designed around animal powered vehicles). The design decisions that were common sense in the America of the Highway Act era - which are still being built out - are likely to have huge impact on future transport infrastructure decisions for much longer than a single century.
