Climate resilience: Has the time come to start demanding lighter-coloured streets in hotter climates?
@ajsadauskas @urbanism As a cyclist, I can attest to the difference pavement color makes. The darkest, freshly laid blacktop is by far the worst, just searing on a hot day. A gray concrete road is far less hot. Eliminating pavement should be the goal, no new roads encouraging car culture.
