Sydney's streets were laid out over a century ago. They barely coped with horse and carriage traffic. Now we have Pitt St Mall and George St is mostly closed for the trams. Many streets have been narrowed to allow for bicycle paths.

So car, truck, taxi, ride-share, delivery van traffic has been funneled onto ever dwindling number of roads and parking has become extremely scarce. As a result congestion has gotten worse.
