Do Londoners think Oxford Street should be pedestrianised?

Transcript

00:00It's a great idea, you know, cafe society, eating outside, wonderful, but tell me,

00:08what about the traffic? How do you re-route the traffic? You know, it's a main archery,

00:13just show me the plans for, you know, that and I'd be more convinced, but would I like it? Yeah,

00:20obviously, I think that's a wonderful, wonderful move. I have no issue with it necessarily,

00:24I worry about accessibility perhaps, for people aren't as able to get around as easily as like

00:31fully able-bodied people are. But it also affects, do we think the taxi drivers and stuff though?

00:36Yeah, because they... Some taxi drivers that have Uber. I think it's actually a really good idea

00:41for local businesses around Oxford Street, I mean, especially at Christmas time, like footfall's

00:45going to increase. I mean, I do feel sorry for local taxi drivers and I think traffic around,

00:50you know, Regent Street, etc, is going to increase, but for local businesses on here,

00:54I think it's a great idea. I think only the kind of really rich people in London can afford to

00:58travel around in cars with congestion charge anyway, and in taxis, but it doesn't really

01:02affect us that much, so I'm kind of thrilled with being pedestrianised, especially if it makes it

01:06a cleaner environment to live and work in.
