Moving in the city

Is this a problem of Moscow or of every city in the world? Sometimes I think that people who built underground and structure of the streets just didn’t think of how people will move there!

The most common problem of Moscow underground system is that there is not enough escalators and a lot of bottleneck places everywhere! Is it so difficult to make some places wider then they are?
The second problem is the people. Sometimes the horde is just moving forward. No matter that there is no way or any other problems – they move. The solution is to invent more passages and other stuff that let’s you move only in one direction and it’s clear what direction particularly.

It’s becoming tougher even in the underground these days – crowds everywhere. Using car is even worth – traffic jams everywhere. And when I say everywhere it means ABSOLUTELY everywhere.
