Road Work in Paris

In Paris these days, you’ll find a lot of road work as the city is being transformed to reduce traffic and discourage people from using their cars. Bus lanes are being built and widened; more trees are being planted; a tram is being built around the city; and sidewalks are being widened. I hear that car drivers (50% of the Parisians) are not happy while the pedestrians are very happy. In my opinion, these changes are GREAT!
