If I read the article correctly, the plan is to eliminate parking in town, build parking lots east & west of town (parking fee not mentioned) and provide free transportation by 2 buses into town.
Would be nice to hear details of the plan, because on the surface it sounds horrible.
- Congested streets are bad, but a lot safer than when the streets are clear and cars and big trucks come through at 100kph.
- The process to go have breakfast/lunch/dinner or shop in town: drive to a parking lot, wait on a bus, ride into town, get dropped off in town 50 meters from your destination, eat, walk to the bus stop, wait for the bus, return to the parking lot.
- The process if raining? See #2 above and add soaking wet clothes.
And what direction exactly does this 3rd lane flow? Bwahahahaha.
