Why Cities Are Banning Cars Around The World
    • 1
    Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Cities have been built around cars or vehicles for a long time, US being the best example. Other places where cities are ancient have suburbs built with cars on sight too. But there is a movement to make cities more human oriented. Not the human being another cog in the system called city where everything happens for a reason, but the human reconquering the streets which were lost with the development of combustion engine, the trees which cool the air, the birds, the vegetation, the calm. This is not a dream of some eco minded people but a reality already happening in many parts of Europe (smaller cities, ancient city centres help of course), but is moving to the big ones, like New York and other cities. Conquering one street at a time, strengthening the reliability safety's security and trust on public transport, showing to the business areas that a street where humans live and not just pass through is better for them, all are advantages, in a world where the digital is winning the race.
