Re:Cities to Untangle Traffic Snarls, with Help from Alphabe... by phkahler on Thursday March 17, 2016 @08:41PM (#11308965)
And my local Walmart has a driveway not 100 yards from a freeway exit. They want easy access in high traffic areas, but that doesn't mean we have to give it to them. The congestion caused by this is really bad. One concept I throw around is that all roads have a numeric classification, and we don't allow intersections between things that differ in classification by more than 1 level. This puts all driveways (business included) on side streets. And then disallow intersections being closer that a certain distance along a road based on its classification. This forces a hierarchy that at least separates things to reduce congestion.
