        stockholm does legitimately have a reputation for trying to be an american state, they have long been mocked for aping the worst parts of america.

          Gotta love the 6 lane highway bulldozed through the middle of a medieval city, and the TWO ring roads. And the conservatives have cancelled the last two rail projects for Stockholm.

            the central highway is truly a baffling piece of infrastructure.

            So we have this stretch of railway through stockholm that is one of the most heavily trafficked parts of the swedish rail network, it’s a massive ugly bottleneck with a measly two tracks.
            Let’s build a highway right next to it that is TWICE AS WIDE, that sounds like just what the city and nation as a whole needs!

            How anyone can look at this and not instantly conclude that the highway bridge should be converted to railway is beyond me.
