    Yeah ig so, but we also don’t have semi trucks all over our city for grocery shops, usually small trucks, vans or bikes. So not sure how it works here fully ig? Only one place here that we know for sure uses semi trucks is the mall.

    We’re not sure what the best solution would be personally, but even here semi trucks give way to pedestrians where pedestrians are. So possibly have areas where pedestrians can’t be (like normal roads and stuff). Though admittedly never thought of this extensively so next time we’re working on our fantasy cities for D&D or comic week have to keep it in mind and study up on efficient ways to do retail deliveries! :3
