Examples
“Underground stations were also slated for closure, and there were plans for massive ring roads to cater for the ever-growing numbers of people commuting into town by car. […] However, it soon dawned on politicians that this was unsustainable. Much of London would have had to be demolished to make way for the ring roads, and parking was becoming an insuperable difficulty.”
