My proposal is to assign existing streets (centerlines to be precise, since we're ignoring existing widths) to categories in this 5-tier schema:https://twitter.com/380kmh/status/966026690723041281 …
You can add location information to your Tweets, such as your city or precise location, from the web and via third-party applications. You always have the option to delete your Tweet location history. Learn more
the reason I said "whatever's clever" earlier is because I'm not committed to any particular way of distributing the newly-available land
One approach I've considered would be to pass it off to the *occupants* of fronting property, which may or may not be the owners
But I wanted to keep the twitter thread focused on the street aspect; if I got too detailed about the land transfer it would dominate the convo (and I just haven't given that part enough thought to sustain a good convo on it!)
what if instead of pulling off the sides we pull from the middle and put some rail down
Basically the streets that really stand to benefit from rail probably don't need to get any narrower--they need to use their existing space better
yeah kick the cars off
