Great way to encourage less car use, more active lifestyles, and improve quality of life while also helping the economy.
As a small side comment, Luxembourg is beyond tiny, like the size of New York but with a fraction of the people of New York loving it in, and it’s also super rich. I’m guessing that makes it quite easy to do things right.
