Ah man. In my town they're redoing some of the roads, and it's lead to me not being able to access my vet easily anymore. I've neither a car nor a license, and I'm not particularly keen on getting either. I've always walked to the vet, from where I live it's only about 4 kilometres. They've completely obliterated the pedestrian path however, so now it's eight because I have to circle around the entire thing.
I'm glad my dog isn't sick with something that causes him to struggle walking, preliminarily we suspect it's a food allergy of some kind, but it's a lot of effort to get there and I'm pissed off they decided to so royally screw over pedestrians. I hope they have better plans for us in the future.
There are direct actions that you can do to convert one of the car lanes into a pedestrian lane.
I'm not taking the chances with my dog.
