I realized that this isn’t true - the streets are not closing to cars. The people who live on the streets are going to be able to drive on them.

That makes this a big program of keeping people who don’t live on your block, off your block 👎. https://twitter.com/rightlegpegged/status/1248599418011627520
Hopefully it doesn’t matter because it will truly be temporary, but this is retrofitting a grid into cul-de-sacs.

Instead of traffic being distributed over neighborhoods, if it stays after corona, it’ll create traffic sewers on some streets, so that others can be exclusive.
