pedestrian zones

Pedestrian zones are designated areas in cities or towns where vehicle traffic is restricted or entirely forbidden, ensuring safe and accessible spaces for walking, cycling, and social activities. These zones often appear in busy shopping districts, historic centers, or urban plazas to improve safety, reduce pollution, and enhance the visitor experience. They typically feature improved infrastructure like benches, greenery, and pedestrian crossings, encouraging more foot traffic and supporting local businesses. Pedestrian zones aim to create more livable, cleaner, and more vibrant public spaces where people can move freely without the concerns of vehicle traffic.
