The best of both worlds
Turf the streets and run cars underground.
It's not hard to have anything we want; the limit is having the will and ambition, being willing and able to pay for it, and accepting there will be a good deal of upheaval required in the short term.

Our greatest societal problem is we want the new but won't accept change, or reject the new because we fear change. Most people seem to be NIMBY by nature whenever something affects them.
