round about with a walk over bridge.
done annnnd done.
Ah yes, let’s force the non-motorised to climb stairs or make a minutes long detour!
I heard an electromagnetic catapult is about to become available, maybe there's another way to solve this. Gotta keep refreshing that GSA auction site.
ok so we could use pneumatic tubes to go places...
Futurama style?
Underground round about with a park on top.
What if youre in a wheel chair?
Dang, too bad no one's ever thought of that... Oh wait
Dang look at the size of them, its almost like you can't put them at every cross walk...
Oh and the cost isn't prohibitive, who would have thunk?
And it only increases the walking distance by a factor of 3. How efficient!
Why would every intersection need one?
Because people all need to get to different places, and walking/wheelchairing half a kilometre in one direction to access a bridge and then walk back sucks
Not every intersection is busy enough to warrant this.
I.e. not every pedestrian matters
If a road has one vehicle come by every hour, you expect a raised pedestrian bridge? A lighted crosswalk is totally fine.
Context matters, but exaggerate to make your point i guess.
