    Okay, but you still need lorries and cars for goods and countryside dwellers, who need access to the city as well

      Those things are still available, they’re just not the only option to the detriment of everyone else. Most people and things should be entering the city by rail, which removes the need for city destroying highways that are ever widening.

      well the first part is just plain false and the second is marginal: you can deliver things in cities by e-bike and very small electric trucks, and people on the countryside are first off like 20% of the population in almost every country but can also be served by public transport in 90% of cases.
