Either, decision should be based on what the optimal approach should be in each circumstance
@9YM4RGF1mo1MO
No, but still address maintenance, just at a lower priority
@9XPLV4F2mos2MO
I think we should improve current infrastructure whilst also building new infrastructure
@9WWWG2P2mos2MO
Should be equally important, there are enough trades to cover both.
@9WQCZRQ2mos2MO
Depends on purpose. Ideally improve current roads to adapt human friendly transportation (i would like to use bikes intead of getting run over).
@9WNFST32mos2MO
Yes, only if repairs are necessary for the safety of citizens.
@9WNF6TB2mos2MO
Both of these need to be considered. If new infrastructure is required as a result of population growth, then yes new infrastructure is necessary but not at a cost to maintaining the current infrastructure in areas of low population growth.
@9VWLG972mos2MO
Yes, unless new infrastructure can fully replace old infrastructure and be more efficient
