Glasgow city centre to see cut back on cars through 'People First Zone'

The public is being asked for their views on plans to turn part of Glasgow city centre into an 'urban heart' with much less traffic.

The People First Zone would cover a significant area of the centre to make it a healthier place to live and a more attractive destination for visitors. By reconfiguring the streets, it's hoped that the city centre would become a place 'people want to spend their time in, rather than just pass through'.

Under the plans, the People First Zone would be created as a high-quality public realm that encourages walking, wheeling and cycling while still providing access for disabled drivers, pick up and drop off at key transport hubs and business deliveries.
