[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Urbanists talk a good game about traffic safety, but then why the "Smart Growth" Bowser Administration hostile to more speed bumps in residential neighborhoods? Why did Bowser mismanage and not enforce the Safe Streets program and then end it, when better-run cities have used similar programs as a starting point to creating safer, more walkable neighborhoods. Why does the Bowser Administration refuse even to consider traffic calming along collector streets, along which many of DC's public and independent school are located?[/quote] Yes, I think that's why you'll find that most actual people who embrace the ideas of smart growth, as opposed to the caricature version of those people that's mostly being argued with here as a straw man, are extremely unhappy with the Bowser administration, which has done almost nothing to improve street safety for non-car uses and done very little to encourage or build affordable housing.
