deadcream @sopuli.xyz I thought America didn't have pedestrian crossings?
34 0 Replytaiyang @lemmy.world Correct. Only tunnels like that I've seen were abroad, here you have to chance it on foot or get a car.

Ironfacebuster @lemmy.world There are crossings at intersections around where I live, but generally crosswalks are few and far between anywhere else (especially on long stroads)
I really don't understand why other than cities and towns aren't willing to spend money on the sidewalks and painted lines

Yeah, tunneling through that rock would be more expensive than moving everyone there to Mars.

5 1 Replyazimir @lemmy.ml My US city's downtown area is 35% open air parking lot. Another 25% is road surface.
Our city council keeps bemoaning the decay of the downtown area. We keep sending them letters, speaking at council meetings, and advocating for something other than building more car shit.
What was their big "look at how amazing our city is!" thing recently? That's right! Freeway expansion so people can get downtown faster. I'm sure that'll fix it.
