for Jan: no more public parking

September 11, 2007 in cities, infrastructure

in New York City

“I’ve got a better idea [than congestion pricing], instead of building a massive infrastructure to watch the roads and bill the drivers a measly $8 a day, why not make driving in New York City (or at least Manhattan or in the legislative terms the CBD) truly expensive and clear the streets right out. Why not ban public parking? Just cut it out completely. Any vehical left unattended on a Manhattan CBD street gets towed. Real simple.“
