Nick, thanks for sharing. I recall a comment on one of the issues that surfaces in this article that someone made at a few years ago at public hearing facilitated by the MPO: Build it and they'll come (single occupant autos!). I see Montreal is among the cities trying to do something about reducing the auto footprint. I spent some time there this summer for vacation. We parked our car and never used it for the entire stay, thanks to the Bixie system. I felt part of a culture that I have never experienced...hope to visit some of the other cities mentioned some day.
