    I agree Grog, that some European cities have some very narrow streets.

    In terms of the density...maybe as reason why there are less tendencies to have racks on local buses. There are some big cities that are sprawly with dreary suburbs, just not as widespread in geographic coverage compared to many North American cities, big and small.

    North America is hugely sprawly which has made some urban planning designs not terribly efficient.

    An article that I just wrote today for our tourism board to promote how to use cycling in combination with ferry, bus, train, etc. for trips to islands, etc.

    Yes, Groundhog it is possible to do it our region with bike, etc. and without a car. We do it most of the time. (Well, we don't have a car.) Maybe above link will give you ideas for trip planning. lst link in starting the topic thread was part I --about multi-modal travel within our city.
