Opinion: The San Diego area needs new kinds of roads [Opinion]
Our car-centric society needs to diversify to match the plethora of low speed vehicles, skates and sneakers being used for local mobility. The Diamond Street “experiment” in Pacific Beach needs to be embraced by the city with additional signage, barriers and infrastructure to provide additional confidence to those who still don’t see the benefits of these types of alternative routes to desired destinations.
When we think about the state’s accessory dwelling unit incentives to increase housing density in existing urban environments, our need to stop building housing tracts on wildland interfaces due to wildfire considerations, it seems more people will be living and mobilizing in urban environments. Society is changing and so must our past, “one size fits all” mobility solutions mantra. Diversity should also include our mobility options. Especially after we need new gas pumps, once again to handle $10-plus-per-gallon prices. Come on San Diego, lead don’t follow.
