Oh I get that there’s options re: park and ride but I am not going on a train with 9 bags of shopping. I don’t even think I could carry it all at once.
Instead- I’ll go to an out of town retail park which is a huge reason behind how the city centre got into the state it is in with regards to the retail fallout.
You 100% cannot please everyone. And I accept that. But I think it will just force more people away from town and to other places rather than taking other forms of transport to town. With less footfall= there’s less money.
I really hope it goes well but in the short to medium term I think the odds are stacked against it |
