Maybe a clear definition of what is a road (for cars) and what is a sidewalk (for people) is a crazy idea?

No belive me that maybe should be applied to society :blush:

I don't see what all the arguing is about? Who doesn't hate pedestrians? Anyone who would abuse a child that way is just plain sick, and should be run over. We need tougher laws to protect our children against these pedestrians. We might have prevented the Amish school shooting. There could be less kidnappings by pedestrians who have no access to other children! |

Vans need to deliver to retail locations. When the shops are closed there are few if any pedestrians, therefore access is allowed between set times.
Buses SERVE pedestrians. Therefore allowing buses in pedestrian areas means people don't have to walk as far with their bags of shopping. Also buses are dirty great big vehicles that accelerate slowly. If you don't see/ hear a bus coming the chances are someone else will steer you out of the way. Why the problem with pedestrianised areas? It keeps city centres alive for a start, rather than have all the big shops move out to retail parks. Old people and children feel safer shopping and the area is generally more relaxed. People don't crowd the pavements, but spread out and enjoy the walking experience. Surely this can't just be a European thing? |

A service path at a park is neither a public road during certain hours, nor a death trap during others, nor a sidewalk for foot traffic. |
