Since it’s now buried below a mini-avalanche of posts and I doubt anyone will notice the updates unless I point to them, I’ve added a few things to the chapter five (“Blocking All Lanes: Traffic”) index below. To further ease your reading experience, the links added are: contributions to the traffic discussion from Nam Henderson and Barry Lehrman (Barry finds a traffic control manual lying in the street), an article on the design history of traffic lights at Design Observer, and a policy piece on the future of transit in Los Angeles at Urbanophile.
This is officially the off-week for the Infrastructural City discussion, but we’re a bit behind on posting for chapter six (Kazys Varnelis’s “Invisible City” — still coming soon! — but go ahead and read FASLANYC‘s post on the chapter), so we’ll be forging ahead next week with chapter seven (Warren Techentin’s “Tree Huggers”).
