I went to Paris! It was super fun, and whilst I was over there, I was so surprised by all the people on bikes and how quiet the roads were!
Paris is such a cool city tho 🙂

Congrats to Paris for makign this happen!
They can't fix the rat problems.
"Not only is Paris as is easy to navigate as other cities in Europe, it's also twice the size" unless I understood wrong, that's not true 🤔Population is high, yes, but that population is very dense. In terms of area, Paris is actually a very small city. As a reference, if I recall correctly, Berlin is 9 times bigger.
Interesting video otherwise.
I think how they drive is part of the problem xd But cycling around central Paris has to be noice
Well, the positive points that you've made are very valid.
Your negatives not so much:
1: The "Unfair Divide" isn't really a thing because the fifteen minute city applies to suburbs as well. Governments won't just strictly improve Cities and leave the suburbs out.
2: Roads are blocked and removed however that takes a lot of cars from the road and thus Traffic doesn't get worse. That's called Traffic Evaporation. It can even get multiplied by building Cycling Infrastructure and Public Transport. At the end, you're left with way less traffic BECAUSE you removed a road and added higher efficiency alternatives.
3: Most Disabled people need a helper to get into a car, but with Public Transport, you don't. Level Boarding Trams are the pinnacle of barrier free transport and Busses have a bus driver, who is able to manually fold out a ramp (At least on most busses). There are also Lifts to get into Metros and stuff like that which is not optimal at all, but it at least makes it possible to get into a Metro without much of a hassle.
But yeah, the rest of the video is great. Good Job!

Bloody marvelous. Get rid of these gas guzzling monstrosities. I have a car but I try to use public transport or cycle or walk. I hate driving, only do it if I have to. I think most cities across the world will have to do this but obviously this costs money.
