San Francisco is making history this week by doing something that every city across America should consider: taking cars off its single busiest street for pedestrians, cyclists, and transit-users. Banning cars on Market Street will make life safer for the 500,000 San Franciscans who walk the road every day.
Would-be president Mike Bloomberg would focus mostly on maintaining roads and bridges we already have, rather than building new ones, while also investing three times more money in transit.
