Will pedestrianisation save Oxford Street?
Original: Everyone hates Oxford Street. Will pedestrianisation save it?
London's Oxford Street, long criticised for traffic, congestion and a run-down shopping experience, is at the centre of a debate over pedestrianisation. Schemes to remove vehicles and remake the famous retail thoroughfare have been proposed repeatedly, with supporters arguing a car-free street could revive its appeal and critics doubting it will fix deeper problems. Commenters are weighing whether closing the street to traffic can genuinely restore one of the world's best-known shopping destinations.
Why now: Renewed plans for pedestrianising the street have reignited debate about its decline and how to fix it.
