When in 2007 the mayor of #Ljubljana proposed to close 12 hectares of its city center to private cars, just 40% of residents approved. A decade later, no less than 97% were against reopening to motor traffic: “None of us can really imagine cars ever staging a comeback”.

For weeks we were told Parisians would punish the city’s street transformation. The election results tell a different story. Pluralistic ignorance: when many quietly support something but assume others don't. Safer and greener public space may be far more popular than we think.
