But let's be realistic, all isolated areas must start with a decrease:
- setting up of small capacity common routes (mini-bus)
- net increase in train service in certain directions (unlike you citro, I think that in certain regions, the train can reduce car traffic, or at least absorb its growth, like Alsace)
immigration
)
Furthermore, with regard to teleworking, agreeing that it will develop, it can provide a non-negligible service, but it is essential to have direct relations in the majority of cases.
"Eliminating the individual vehicle" is completely illusory, precisely in Alsace, there are plenty of examples of the deletion of worker bus lines because employment is too dispersed and the number of people to be transported too small, so the filling rate vehicles very insufficient even with minibuses (you have to pay for fuel, drivers (who are VERY poorly paid and their job is DANGEROUS especially in town where there are many attacks) and depreciation of rolling stock ... Especially in Alsace, the small train lines are preserved, for many only hold thanks to the financial support of the region: an example of partial success is the Colmar Munster line which, although not profitable at all 10 years ago, has been modernized, the equipment driving faster and less greedy, the number of transports x2 and a filling rate ended up being "almost" sufficient to amortize the costs ... We are not even talking about earning money!
Otherwise, in case you are not aware, the workers massively share carpooling when possible, which is far from obvious given the very complex organization of work in the factories (3,4,5, 8xXNUMX, dynamic hours, etc.)
The train is only ecologically and economically valid when the filling rate is sufficient, otherwise it is catastrophic because the equipment is very expensive, heavy, therefore requires powerful machines, the construction / maintenance of extremely expensive tracks, and it is necessary pay staff well ...
Teleworking many dream of it, but only a privileged minority can really benefit from it (paper scrapers whose longevity is already 20% greater than that of workers ...) When to "direct relations", see the kind of relationships that there are within a modern factory: here and there, you see people (most often highly qualified) dispersed who work almost alone in the middle of a huge park of automated machines and robots ... the relationship between people mainly concerns salespeople, less and less production ...
When it comes to spreading out workplaces, it can be explained in the same way: it takes fewer and fewer people to create a certain volume of production, but the area required does not decrease ... and dispersion leads to need for individual transport: no more large companies or thousands of people arrived simultaneously, often housed in the same places, perfect situation for public transport.
Those who use private vehicles the most are often those in the most precarious situation; ex: a staff of a cleaning company or other personal services companies: several "sites" to deal with in the same day = incessant trips, all for a modest income, and this type of employment is developing on a large scale speed nowadays ...
