Reminds me of an old science fiction novel I read years ago. Teleportation had became common, so people no longer needed cars. The entire system of interstate highways was converted to long, narrow parks.
You’ll be disappointed. It’s a very minor part of the plot, and the construction of the parks is only mentioned in passing. The novel was Ringworld by Larry Niven (written in 1970. Sexism ahoy!)

It’s so weird to me that for some people the only way to escape the car dependency is to invent fucking teleportation.
What’s the name of the novel? I kinda want to read that now because that sounds interesting.
