[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For all the popularity of "new urbanism" in MoCo, it's still - and likely to remain - a largely car-dependent county outside those new urbanish centers.[/quote] Sure, especially if we act on the assumption that it's car-dependent so it's gonna stay car-dependent.[/quote] How do you see it changing? Outside a few corridors, there's not enough density to make transit or walking work. It's why MoCo is trying so hard to push development into those corridors.[/quote] What does "there's not enough density to make walking work" mean? Lots of people in easy walking/biking distance of the stores in Olney don't even have sidewalks, to say nothing of the acres and acres and acres of asphalt surface parking lots in the middle of Olney, and the horrible, dangerous walking/biking experience on Georgia Avenue and 108.[/quote]
