Hans Marti
Hans Marti was a prominent urban planner and a vocal critic of automobile-centric infrastructure in Switzerland during the mid-20th century. He gained notoriety in the 1960s for opposing the proposed Autobahn expansion in Zurich, which he argued would exacerbate traffic issues and harm urban livability. His advocacy for a more pedestrian-friendly and environmentally conscious city planning approach made him a significant figure in the burgeoning environmental movement of the time.
