| Comment | It doesn't just affect those streets though. You already can't go straight on Argyle Street heading eastward at the Highlandman's Umberella, nor turn right from Oswald at the same bit, So by including Union Street into the arrangement you now have zero private cars on Argyle Street (between 4 corners and Queen Street) and Queen Street itself.
I think the council have just showed us where they intend the first "superblock" to be once they get to that stage. It'll have rough borders of Queen Street, St Vincent Street, Union Street and Argyle Street. I'd expect Gordon Street and Mitchell Street to end up pedestrainised in a few years as those are the only two driving streets left within that space. Pedestrianise those 2 and viola, superblock surrounded by bus/taxi/cycle only. |
