    American, right? Perfectly feasible with good public transport in a dense European cities like Stockholm. It’s not a particularly large area either. Sidewalks and cycle paths everywhere.

    If you read the article, you’ll also read that exceptions will be made for the disabled, large (hybrid) vans, emergency services, etc.

    TBH plenty of European cities, taking your car into the city centre is for rich people anyway. Parking can easily costs you 50 euros per day or more.

    Meanwhile, you can often park for free (or next to free) at a so called park and ride at the edge of the city, then hop on public transport to the centre for 5-10 minutes and avoid congestion almost entirely.

      I’m not even American, I’m from the UK. I’m all for going green but I am also being a realist.
