Better yet, build car tunnels and let pedestrians and cyclists stay at the surface. Looking at which mode of of transportation has to duck under or jump over the other is an indicator of which mode planners prioritize.PlatinumBlues wrote: ↑Aug 13, 2022Chicago is a rich city maybe they should start building pedestrian tunnels for walkers runners and cyclists to avoid this type of mess

Elon Musk was going to build tunnels in Chicago until a delegation went to see his tunnels in Vegas and realized how stupid it was, so Lightfoot killed it

Revisiting Bicycling in Minneapolis: One of USA's Top Bicycling Cities
Minneapolis makes me so damn jealous, but also optimistic. They are a pretty similarly built city to STL which gives me hope that one day we can catch up on bike infrastructure.
