    It’s not just about cycling or walking. In an ideal city, you can just walk to a tram, metro or bus and then enjoy a air conditioned journey. The point of the video is to highlight how the common excuses of “the weather” or “city too big” are not valid reasons to just keep building roads and dismiss public transport, walkable spaces or cycling paths. Any city will benefit from good people-first design, regardless if it’s cold or hot, dry or wet, big or small.
