They say it'll have high quality public transport. If this is the same area that a city planner once talked about then it'll be quite troublesome. Using models they can predict how effective the mobility will be. For the neighborhood he talked about the plans would not work at all.

If I investigate this plan it seems it'll just be bus lines. At the moment just 2 stops. For 6.000 houses. That seems like a failure.

With the housing shortage they might get sold anyway.

There will be space for 250 shared cars, 21,500 bicycle parking spaces in the buildings, and two logistics hubs for parcels. The parking garages will be located on the edge of the district.

So bike to your car. I like the idea.

What an American way of thinking, most people who move in will cycle to work / school etc

I'm just commenting on the "parking garages will be located on the edge of the district" part. So the idea is for at least some residents to still have cars, just don't park them right next to their apartment. I work from home and have gym, supermarket, train station and restaurants walking distance from home but I still use my car on the weekends to go climbing or hiking. Having parking farther away from home is a nice compromise. What's American about it?

Not sure why i commented that way, wasn't funny or fair. You understand their plans and appreciate them, so there wasn't a reason for me to say something judgemental really.
