## Resource

Leicester City Council is rolling out a bold new plan to shut down streets near a primary school in Clarendon Park, aiming to shield kids from traffic and pollution—while shifting focus from bikes to pedestrians. With sidewalks choked by parked cars, cluttered bins, and tripping hazards like curbs and planters, even city centers like Granby Street struggle for walkability. After years of roadwork that often ignored foot traffic, residents are demanding a rethink: pedestrians deserve safer, smoother paths—because they’ve been using these streets long before cars and bikes took over.
