Our urban system should prioritise our most vulnerable road users (pedestrians, cyclists, etc.), who happen to be our most eco-friendly road users.

Seeing pedestrians here in Aotearoa yield to turning vehicles (even those turning out of small side streets) still hurts my soul—system's backwards.
You’ll barely notice, but this arterial road is intersected by several side streets.

Rather than sinking humans down into the space of crossing cars, the foot and cycle paths are raised, continuous and prioritized—reducing driver entitlement.

This should be standard everywhere.
