Parking before learning: bureaucrat priorities

Lahore Development Authority prioritises parking over pedagogy for schools. A classic case of bureaucratic short-sightedness.

Parking before learning: bureaucrat priorities
FO Take · Score 20

Lahore's development authority demands parking provisions before approving schools. This utterly misses the point of urban planning and education. Congestion is a symptom, not the disease. Focus on accessible public transport and decentralised learning hubs, not car parks. When will we stop building for automobiles instead of humans?

The strongest counter

Ensuring adequate parking prevents chaos and improves accessibility for parents and staff. It's a pragmatic step for urban management, ensuring new institutions don't exacerbate existing infrastructure problems.
