Urban Fences, Buses and Starbucks
Fences are the newest traffic engineering solution for achieving good traffic flow; they control people, by blocking the path of least resistence. To catch a bus accross the street becomes incovenient; a long walk for a senior, for a mother with kids and anyone loaded with goods.
Starbucks is missing in both pictures, not in the urban nor in the suburban.
To serve both bus directions well, a coffe shop would, ideally, be located on the fence! out the door and on to a bus! That can happen in a Fused Grid road configuration (see Wiki)
In the current mode, it will be a long wait for the bus and the starbucks and a long stretch for convenience and comfort-minded transportation planning.
