Comment | It's better than having ALL the traffic go through the city centre surface streets just to pass through.
Imagine the state of Saint Vincent Street if every single vehicle, including HGVs, that need to get from east to west or west to east had to pass right through the city centre. Imagine all the north/south traffic doing it on Hope Street.
Because that's what it was like. City centre congestion in the late 50s was brutal. Apparently, city centre congestion today is about 80% better than it was in 1960. |
