Accrington Web - View Single Post - Outside the Town Hall to be open to traffic

That stretch of road , Broadway , Peel Street , and the whole of St James St used to be open to traffic . There were no one-way streets if I remember rightly . However the amount of traffic on the roads was way below what it is today .

I'm all for pedestrianised areas in town centres , and I can't see how opening this small stretch of road to all traffic will make a significant difference to trade .
