    Isn’t engineering supposed to involve efficient use of resources? Space, time, cost, maintenance; this looks like an awful design for transporting things.

    This is more like art; wasting resources on something grandiose that makes some sort of ‘statement’, whilst honouring daft constraints like ‘each twat must be at least 4m from every other twat at all times’.

      It increases the efficiency of car traffic, not moving people. It’s still good engineering from a car perspective, but terrible urban design.
