Since 2002, the European Mobility Week tries to educate and inform the public about transportation problems. From the collective Granada Greenway reject this annual reminder function in any case, as an imaging instrument on behalf of the institutional media and industry that created it.
When you really want to end up with a problem, investigate its causes. The Sustainable Mobility Week simply seeks to minimize the adverse effects of current transport, without addressing the root problem or ask to reduce its need and use. And by the way, purchase their mouths shut or perverts that talk about environmentalism. Is increasing while the structural dependence of transport, try to patch its harmful effects with buses, subways and bicycles, falling pitch nice and justify new infrastructure. Countries such infrastructure flooded pollute even more than others, and thus allows increased transport and sale of products, more growth, 'development', consumption, production, resource extraction, etc. No one can question the transport without jeopardizing economic growth, perhaps that is the problem this week.
Our position is to suppress the Week of Sustainable Mobility. Sustainability in this case seeks to perpetuate a system with small cures that brings us closer to collapse, and we do not like to support us in the tolerable limit, because it's unbearable and dangerous. We prefer the reduced mobility in all its forms, as a first big step. At least ask that the state stop subsidizing car use, as does every time it builds a road or parking. We seem pointless and even counter the claims of this week, especially the demand of many groups ecociclistas flag: the urban bike lane. (...)
Security? The supposed safety of bike lanes is also questionable, because they break the logic of the traffic. To be segregated and right, the rider is less visible and less predictable behavior at intersections. Is taking responsibility away from both cyclists and motorists of the traffic interaction, impossible to avoid at all times by a very large network that is the bike lanes. Accidents like this are happening today.
If (...) The first problem is safety / cyclists, there are better solutions and more supportive, investing priorities in the use of public space: the 'traffic calming' is set to preclude the speed streets, either through hurdles (elevated pedestrian crossings, ridges, etc..) or by the winding streets (narrow stretch through islets, etc.). The 'Shared Space', whose predecessor is the traffic engineer Hans Monderman, and is held in different cities (Drachten, Makkinga, Wolwega, Oudehaske, etc.), Where signs have been removed and matching floor, leading to resulted in a decrease drastically the number of accidents and motor vehicles, and creating more contact between people, it is necessary in the absence of regulatory signage.
