Japan has good neighborhood streets
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"> <div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puV5D7P8_N8</div> </figure> <p>I’ve been telling people for years how the narrowness of the streets in Japan is probably the best traffic calming device I’ve ever seen and works on almost every mode of traffic from large truck down to pedestrian. In the States, we build roads way too wide for their intended use, then complain later when we see people driving on them like mini freeways. The street I lived on in Japan was about 10 meters wide; the one I live on now is about 20. (Thats 30 and 60 feet respectively for us ‘Muricans)</p> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="300" height="250" data-attachment-id="567713" data-permalink="https://starrwulfe.xyz/2024/04/japan-neighborhood-street-design/screenshot_13-4-2024_64827_www-google-com/" data-orig-file="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot_13-4-2024_64827_www.google.com_.jpeg" data-orig-size="955,796" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="Screenshot_13-4-2024_64827_www.google.com" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot_13-4-2024_64827_www.google.com_.jpeg" data-large-file="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot_13-4-2024_64827_www.google.com_.jpeg" class="wp-image-567713" src="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot_13-4-2024_64827_www.google.com_-300x250.jpeg" alt="Typical view of the last street in Japan I lived on in Hiratsuka, Japan, an exurban part of Greater Tokyo/Yokohama.

That never happens in the US, even for commercial truckers. The other thing is how the laws are enforced. Japanese traffic police are very good at their jobs, especially motorcycle and bike cops. The painted sharrows and Dutch style bike edge lanes are very recent, like in the last 5-10 years or so; what’s more at work here is just a long history of Japanese traffic law being very strict especially beginning in the mid 1990’s when it on-street parking was made illegal nationwide (something also not talked about by almost anyone, but is very noticeable to anyone coming to Japan.)</p> <p>I’ll die on this hill: Laws are only as good as their enforcement, adherence and understanding. Learning to drive, ride, and even walk as a pedestrian in Japan is something that is reinforced and understood by the vast majority and that’s the main reason why you see things the way they are.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft"><img decoding="async" width="300" height="233" data-attachment-id="567811" data-permalink="https://starrwulfe.xyz/2024/04/japan-neighborhood-street-design/screenshot_13-4-2024_7118_www-google-com/" data-orig-file="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot_13-4-2024_7118_www.google.com_.jpeg" data-orig-size="872,676" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="ATL suburban street profile" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot_13-4-2024_7118_www.google.com_.jpeg" data-large-file="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot_13-4-2024_7118_www.google.com_.jpeg" class="wp-image-567811" src="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Screenshot_13-4-2024_7118_www.google.com_-300x233.jpeg" alt="typical suburban Atlanta neighborhood with single-story houses and tall trees.

A few years ago, a dear friend of mine was fatally struck by a car while crossing mid-block on a busy road in Nagoya. He was on his bicycle, and although I’m not fully aware of the details, the police indicated that the primary cause was his decision to cross a major road at night outside of the crosswalks, on what is known as a “<a href="https://www.strongtowns.org/journal/2018/3/1/whats-a-stroad-and-why-does-it-matter">stroad</a>“. Such incidents are often attributed to “user error”, and it’s uncertain if any design changes could prevent these types of accidents. Nonetheless, it’s somewhat consoling to know that this is the only traffic fatality I’ve experienced in Japan, compared to six I’ve known in the US over a similar period of about twenty years. I lived in Nagoya for three years about 13 years ago and it’s known for being the place with the most traffic safety issues per capita in Japan due in part to its wider than average boulevards and a relatively lower public transit coverage plus higher car dependence and sprawl when compared to Osaka and Tokyo metros (which is still way better than the typical American city anyway). This is Toyota and Mitsubishi’s hometown after all. Even still, there are places like Sakae and <a href="https://www.archdaily.com/997471/hisaya-odori-park-taisei-design-planners-architects-and-engineers">Hisaya-Odori Park</a> along with<a href="https://jason.gatewood.xyz/x/EB4B8D75-986E-4EC3-B35A-C1E67AF8C8B0/b/F3C15F0A-82E6-4375-9EE3-CBB0881D7458/Let%E2%80%99s-Tour-Nagoya%E2%80%99s-Underground-Lab"> lots of underground pedestrian plazas</a> that serve to help keep the center of town first class for pedestrians and separate from car traffic.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image alignleft"><img decoding="async" width="300" height="196" data-attachment-id="567913" data-permalink="https://starrwulfe.xyz/2024/04/japan-neighborhood-street-design/screenshot/" data-orig-file="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/211200_Handboek-Rood-tram-street.jpg" data-orig-size="1024,669" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"Screenshot","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"Screenshot","orientation":"1"}" data-image-title="Isometric Tram Street" data-image-description="<p>The image presents a conceptual design for a multi-modal city street, featuring a tram on a dedicated track, a red cycling path, and pedestrian walkways.

This is something that doesn’t need to be done in one go; it can be done in phases as streets come up for reconstruction, can be done with just a little bit more money than said maintenance, and has been successful in the vast majority of places it has been implemented. I’ve been reading books like <a href="https://abc.starrwulfe.xyz/2024/04/13/finished-reading-building.html"><em>Building the Cycling City</em></a> and even the <a href="https://www.amsterdam.nl/wonen-leefomgeving/puccinimethode/puccinimethode/"><em>Amsterdam Red Book</em></a> for urban mobility to gather some of these points. I cannot stress enough how much better life in the suburbs would be if we made better use of the space we have by ceding a chunk of it away from automobiles and back to human beings.</p> <p> </p> <section class="response"> <header> <span>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puV5D7P8_N8</a></header> </section> <blockquote class="e-summary"><div class="kind-embed"><div class="toolbelt-video-wrapper"><button data-iframe="<iframe title="Japan's Streets are Better..." width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/puV5D7P8_N8?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>" class="toolbelt-embed-shield toolbelt-embed-shield-www-youtube-com"><strong>Click to load "Japan's Streets are Better..."</strong><small>www.youtube.com may use cookies</small></button></div><a class="u-url" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puV5D7P8_N8"></a></div></blockquote><span class="syn-text">🗣️💬👍🚀♻️ ➡️</span><p class="relsyn"><span><a aria-label="youtube" class="u-syndication syn-link" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puV5D7P8_N8&lc=UgzxHrs1vqb_WBlbVQB4AaABAg"> YouTube</a></span></p><p><img src="https://starrwulfe.xyz/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/japan-streets-are-better-titlecard.jpg">

【CYCLE MODE RIDE】 初めての自転車EXPOへ行って来ました! 大阪万博公園で開催されている西日本最大級のスポーツ自転車フェスティバルですっ。 有名なブランドのブースがたくさん並んでいて、実際にバイクの試乗が出来る素敵なイベント。 ・ 自転車は大好きだけど普段はサイクリングを楽しんでいるだけなので、自転車関連の情報に疎くこの様なコンテンツがある事を初めて知りました。 ・ 勿論cannondaleブースもありますよ!! そして隣にはベンツの展示も。 私もcannondaleシャツと帽子を被って会場に行き、私と同じモデルの自転車に試乗された方達とお喋りを楽しみましたっ。 ・ 途中でサンケイスポーツの方が遊びに来てくれたので、一緒に広い会場にひしめく自転車関連グッズとフードエリアを見て回り、最後はパンクをした時のタイヤの取替え方の講習も受けてきました。 ・ 1日いても、まだまだ足りないっ。 会場自体が充実しているのもあるけど、大好きなキャノンデールチームが居るから楽しくて仕方がない!! やっぱりイベントは人に会える喜びも大きいよねっ。 ・ 数ある自転車の中で今回1番胸がときめいたのは、写真で私が乗っているBAD BOY!!! シンプルで洗練されたフォルムの中に大人のこだわりが詰まった最高の1台。 ・ cannondaleのSNSや #badboy で検索してみてくださいね! 大阪にいらっしゃる方は、明日も9:30〜17:00まで開催されているので、是非会場に遊びに来てくださいっ。 ・ #cannondale #cannondalebikes #roadbike #cycling #cyclist #mercedesbenz #cyclemode #cyclemoderideosaka2017 #osaka #expo #ロードバイク #キャノンデール #サイクルモード #サイクルモード大阪 #万博公園 (万博公園 Expo Park)

The Wheels Are Turning at Cycle Mode Ride Osaka
The Wheels Are Turning at Cycle Mode Ride Osaka
Japan largely missed out on the first bicycle boom of the 1880s and 1890s but when the bicycle became hot again in the 1960s and 1970s – mostly for recreational and fitness desires – the country was not about to be left on the side of the road. Japan zoomed past the United Kingdom to rank second only to the United States in the value of bicycles exported. Japanese bicycle manufacturers also…
