@notjustbikes, you are talking a lot in your videos about how great transit is in Europe compared to the US. Have you seen Cyprus? Like it's depressing how close it is to being a small US copy (or at times, even worse). It's an actual hellscape for pedestrian, and the stats show it (0.1% of people walk 30 or more minutes a day)

@notjustbikes here's a PEDESTRIAN SIDEWALK for example:

@weethet well, cars are parked on the sidewalk, but it doesn't look THAT bad. The buildings are near the road, there's a sidewalk, and destinations look relatively close together.

They definitely need more illegal parking enforcement, and Cyprus could stand to have a lot more walking paths and cycling lanes, but saying it's "worse" than the US is very exaggerated.

Cyprus could be great with just a few small changes. The only thing missing is political will.

@notjustbikes well the problem is, the only thing the government does is present nice looking renders, while continuing doing nothing to actually implement them. And it's not like it's a recent thing, there are plans from 2016, 2018, 2019, 2021 and so on
