Comment | Yep this is a big thing in Dutch city centres. Groningen and Delft (I think) pioneered it a couple of decades back.
Basically you can enter from one side of the city centre box, and can maybe exit via a corner at an adjacent side. But it's impossible due to the road layouts, bus gates and pedestrianised streets to directly cross the city centres in a car.
Instead you use the ring roads to go round the outside to the closest point to your eventual destination in the centre (or better yet cycle in!). |
