Carfree city : ウィキペディア英語版 | Carfree city
A carfree city or car free city is a population center that relies primarily on public transport, walking, or cycling for transport within the urban area. Carfree cities greatly reduce petroleum dependency, air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, automobile crashes, noise pollution, and traffic congestion. Some cities have one or more districts where motorized vehicles are prohibited, referred to as car-free zones. Many older cities in Europe, Asia, and Africa were founded centuries before the advent of the automobile, and some continue to have carfree areas in the oldest parts of the city -- especially in areas where it is impossible for cars to fit, e.g. in narrow alleys. ==History== A theoretical design for a carfree city of one million people was first proposed by J.H. Crawford in 1996 and further refined in his books, ''Carfree Cities'' and ''Carfree Design Manual''.
