  Gare de Lyon yesterday evening at 6pm: when you design the waiting spaces so poorly it quickly crumbles at every disruption. Main hall completely overcrowded, it can take 5 minutes to cross it. People sitting on every possible staircase, along every wall in all levels of the station, or seeking fresh air in the privatized shops.

  Interesting data point in @OlivierRazemon@piaille.fr's blog: 90% of car drivers (in a rural town in France) always use the same parking spot. Perhaps explains why removing a handful of spots at a hyperlocal scale often leads to very vocal opposition, even when at the scale of a city statistics show that car usage decreases, or when even in small towns there is approval for more pedestrian areas.
