    We pay for it by redeveloping massive multi lane roads into multi transit corridors when their major repair/resurfacing work is due. A few places have used this strategy to redevelop car centric areas into areas with better transit and pedestrian accesses.

      That requires a public process.

      And guess what voters and politicians want? More roads and more barriers to the “unwashed poor” who use transit.
