From an urban planning perspective, what's the worst designed aspect of your city?
Personally it's crossing the freeway where I live. My city has about 100,000 people but only six roads cross the freeway, with three more wayyy on the outskirts that are basically detours. There are also only a few pedestrian bridges that cross it, and zero pedestrian tunnels. The way our freeway works is it goes around downtown with the ocean to the south and west, so people live on the outside of the freeway and then commute inwards. This means insane bottlenecks with miles of cars in both directions trying to get to the other side. It doesn't help that our four freeway entrances are also at some of these tunnels / bridges, which means people who need to get on or off the freeway are also present. In general it's a shitshow and I'd really like to see a few more bypasses to prevent this congestion in the future.
I currently live in Denver which has been ranked one of the worst cities for public transit design in the USA. Moving soon to Barcelona and looking forward to not owning a car.
You can get anywhere in the city on a bus! ...in about 2 hours, with a half-hour transition from the east-west bus to the north-south bus in the middle.
I believe you but the thought that Denver is worse in this department than where I am (Nashville) is baffling. It’s also horrible here, my area doesn’t even have sidewalks. :(
