Trolleys, trains and electric rent a cars that probably could be solar powered or not require such insanely powerful batteries.
Some basic form of a highway system two lanes no more. For military use, for long distance travel and for getting to certain places a trolley or train can't get you.
Also trolleys don't need asphalt. We could have grass all over our streets with plants that have free food for wildlife and those desperate. Probably wouldn't have such bad natural disasters either
okay.
so um.... I feel like if a car without 4wd can get there, a train can get there, with the same or less amount of effort+maintenance+ecological-fallout.
Until the first street-level flood, or even heavy rain for that matter - then your shit's fucked.
