Oxford Street is one of the London's most famous roads, but it’s also one of the most chaotic. People have been suggesting how they would 'make it better'.
One person said: ‘Trams are better for integrating with pedestrians than road vehicles. They’re much more predictable, and people avoid the tracks. It works well in Amsterdam, Croydon, Manchester, Milan etc.’Some brought up the Croydon tram as an example
Another agreed: ‘Went to Australia recently and Melbourne and Adelaide both have free tram loops. Works well.’Of course, there were some whackier ideas on the transport front too: ‘Both pavements should be conveyor belts moving in opposite directions with a giant set of rotating knives moving up and down the road like Manic Miner.’
Someone else joked: ‘How about we put the buildings on a big conveyer belt and just have people sit on comfy benches until they see something they like a in a window.’
