  • That’s a good point and a spelling correction to boot 😂.

    I did add an edit that we also have bicycles / motorcycles with paramedics if speed is of the essence and traffic is poor.

    I also realise that Deansgate In Manchester City centre has now got those bollards too, but we have severely limited the cars that are allowed into the city centre and I must say it’s a lot more pleasant walking around and I say that as someone that used to drive through the city centre myself on the way home from work.

    Edit: I took a picture. This is slap bang in the city centre and traffic is minimal.

  • This isn’t cars this is people and their culture.

    I am from the UK, a large city too, and we have lots of cars and incredibly busy roads where it’s standstill a lot, but cars will move out of the way for emergency vehicles, you’ll drive on the kerb if you have to.

    Edit: We also have paramedics on motorcycles and bicycles so that they can get there even faster if traffic is an issue. Or in city centres.
