[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Traffic patterns will be back to pre-pandemic levels by the Fall. DC will continue to force cars off the road by over-emphasizing cyclists and pedestrians. Over time this will inevitably lead to an erosion of the city’s tax base as more residents leave and the number of jobs stagnates or declines. Then the city’s Politburo will ask what went wrong…[/quote] No, the problem has been an overemphasis for cars since the 1950's when the Streetcar was discontinued and in the 1980's when the bus/bike lanes were ended. If those were still in place, we wouldn't be having this conversation at all.[/quote]
