- 0:00 Luca, I think you're definitely right.
- 0:01 I think the city needs to place more emphasis on these smaller roads that most people take to commute around town.
- 0:08 Uh I think they're definitely lacking in that division.
- 0:12 But I think in if I were to take a guess, I think the city take thinks about it in two ways.
- 0:18 Uh you know, is is closing down some of these streets worth it for its civilians?
- 0:25 You know, a lot of people depend on some of these roads to get to work, to uh uh to get home.
- 0:31 And I mean there's already such a a crisis with traffic in Atlanta.
- 0:35 Uh you know, would it be reasonable to even close down these roads to to fix them?
- 0:41 But another thing that uh goes on your argument is yeah, why why are we not able to fix these roads?
- 0:50 Uh Atlanta's home to some of the most jobs uh in Georgia, probably the most, but uh the amount of tax revenue going to the state of Georgia, uh in Atlanta especially, how are we not able to fix the roads?
- 1:08 Uh I think that's one of the most basic things there is.
- 1:11 Uh every everybody in Atlanta uses a form of transportation of some sort.
- 1:16 And as we don't have a rail system, it's it's likely dependent on the road.
- 1:21 So why are we not fixing the backbone to transportation in the city?
- 1:25 So I think you made an excellent point.
