I live in a town with a university with a big urban planning program. You can definitely see the effects. While there are some quirks (more roundabouts on one street than most cities have total) it also has amazing biking infrastructure for north America and lately has been closing street to cars in the downtown core. It is very refreshing and a big part of why i live where I do. I just wish every city could get these planners is all, i hope that in a decade or so the urban planners here will move on to other cities and have the seniority to spread the good ideas.
