If you cannot live without your car, Zurich might be the last city you would like to visit. In Zurich, people are welcome, but cars are not. Over the past 20 years, this city has used smart ways __19___ . One is to keep the same total number of parking spaces. For example, if 50 new parking spaces are built in one part of the city, then 50 old spaces in other parts are taken away for other uses. So the total number does not change. Some are unhappy that there are never enough spaces. That is just what the city has in mind: If people find parking more difficult, they will drive less.
