The best arguement is that Amsterdam is not London.
That is we don't have a circular medieval street plan built around a canal network. It's also a very compact city.
Oh , and that there are large motor ways that take cars out of Amsterdam
So lets not obsess with Amsterdam as the soloution...
We need , borrowing from the Dutch or the Danish, city specific soloutions. So what would work in a N American city grid system may not transfer well to London's sprawl. Paris might be a better comparision?
