minus-squareStovetop@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·1 year agoWhat makes you think buses don’t have to deal with traffic while cars inherently do?
minus-squareSekoia@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoSpecial lanes and priorities! They’re a thing! Literally in the city next to mine (not necessary cus the town is small enough).
minus-squareStovetop@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-21 year agoI guess my city is too old to have streets wide enough for dedicated bus lanes.
minus-squareThenThreeMore@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoI doubt it. Reduce both directions of car lanes by a couple of meters and suddenly you’ve got a bus lane. Alternatively if it’s narrower work it into a one way system and the lane that was the other direction becomes space for the bus lane.
