Johnson County tried that on Old 218 - and it cost an 83 year old retired pastor his life. We should not seek to emulate that example.
#BanCars would be ideal but not realistic. Simply starting with realizing 12 foot travel lanes, clear zones, multiple curb cuts for each parcel, and designing for an A LOS at peak demand does not a livable street make.
The saddest part of all may be that the City of Coralville government loves their City Engineer (who has had the job for over 30 years) - they call him "brilliant."
The city wants to build a ped-friendly mixed use corridor. He builds a highway style road right down the middle.
