    The traffic condition in my city is unbearable, streets made for 19th century carriages overflowing with parked cars. Pedestrization is going veeeery slowly, with heated resistance from people who would drive to their own bathrooms if they could.

    As part of her climate change plan, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo is pedestrianizing streets, building bike lanes, and planting trees. The goal is to reduce carbon emissions, reduce traffic noise and make the city more able to resist heat.

    She has been very aggressive and upset some car drivers. But the results are starting to pay off.

      how many parking spaces are erased? 20?

      apparently, in Paris, 1 in 3 households have cars ☞ https://www.insee.fr/fr/statistiques/2012694#tableau-TCRD_001_tab1_departements

        French person to the rescue.

        It’s \mo\ or “m-oh”.

        Not French, but to me it reads as “M-yoo”

        Google translate just says “moo” (not elongated like a cow, just short, like “Mu”)

      Paris has so many flowers that there are more bees inside Paris than outside Paris.

      Although that’s also because of the pesticides used outside Paris.

      It looks like they’re going for natural wildflowers, which means that there will be periods of time where it’s basically all just green. What you get in return though is lots of interesting grasses but the image is pretty low resolution so you can’t really see all that.

    Was that a street or a parking lot? Because I see cars on the far right side, and this dead ends anyway.

        On first glance I thought this could have been a two way road with trees in the middle and they closed one way for this pedestrian area.

        But it actually was some kind of parking lot/access street. The actual Rue de Meaux continues straight on while what we’re looking at is just a 100m long off-branch.
