    Are you suggesting this is not progress? Because this is honestly amazing.

        My guess is OP is being sarcastic because progress to many people means more highways & cars. More construction and development.

        I wish we had more of this kind of progress near me (Colorado USA).

      I haven’t found anyone adding the detail that the photo is a bit deceptive.

      The road is still there, it was just moved underground. It surfaces at the bridge in the background.

      It’s definitely better, but the car traffic is still there, just hidden.

      Source: I live a couple minutes from where the photo was taken

    Why the “”? Getting cars out of cities to improve quality of life is a major progress.

    This is actual progress. I’d love for places to have more green

    Yes progress! Using the quotes there make it seem like you disagree that this is progress, which I will choose to believe you didn’t mean it like that.

    I have seen a few pictures like this from around the world. It’s pretty encouraging

  • Ah yeah they should’ve just done the American thing instead and bulldozed the whole strip of town to put in a 20 lane wide interstate with a Bucees and Walmart/s

    I totally puked a litre of concentrated grape juice in that hot park in 1999.
