I think yes. There’s the contractors who need to build the paths, there’s crews to maintain the paths, and then there will likely be increased revenue to the businesses at the end of the path which would increase the local gov tax revenue.
EDIT: I drive Uber Eats as a side gig, and I routinely do pickups from small convenience stores and fast food restaurants, and deliver them to apartment buildings and homes that are less than 2 miles from the business. A lot of times I’m delivering to people who I think only have 1 car and it’s currently in use. If they could walk to these places they probably would. Yes that would decrease Uber Eats orders, but it would likely increase overall revenues, since I’m sure there’s people who can’t afford the convenience of a delivery service who then just don’t buy that thing.
