PARIS: The city’s transition away from the car has become a global role model. Under mayor Anne Hidalgo, Paris was “the most influential city in the world”, says Canadian urbanist Brent Toderian. Hidalgo, stepping down after 12 yrs, exulted: “The bike beat the car.”
Good luck in tomorrow’s election, Emmanuel Grégoire @egregoire. The most important mayoral election in the world. #VOTE #Paris https://www.ft.com/content/882ebf59-d14a-4d4c-beb7-af72df31a4f3
"Gregoire has promised to carry on the legacy of outgoing Socialist mayor Anne Hidalgo, including increasing the number of bike lanes and green spaces and improving public housing in the densely populated city of two million people.
"Dati -- soon to go on trial for graft charges she denies -- has vowed to make the city cleaner and safer, pledging to improve rubbish collection, give weapons to municipal police officers and increase video surveillance."

@BrentToderian - hey Brent, tell that to 'The Premier Who Would Be Mayor', Doug Ford. 'More cars, faster, with no way to control them' appears to be his urban strategy.
Toronto is skidding towards the abyss (certainly not influential) with his help.
