Cities often implement road diets to enhance urban mobility and promote a healthier environment.
The effectiveness of a road diet depends on various factors, including local traffic patterns and community feedback.
Road diets can lead to fewer accidents by calming traffic and providing more space for cyclists and pedestrians.
Some residents may initially oppose road diets due to concerns about increased congestion, but studies show they can actually improve traffic flow and reduce delays in the long term.
Before implementing a road diet, municipalities typically conduct thorough studies and engage with stakeholders to assess potential impacts and benefits.
