This month, Lisbon will become the latest European city to bar thru-traffic from its city centre. The plan, to be introduced for a 3-month trial period, will see cars barred from driving thru (but not driving to) the heart of #Lisbon’s downtown. Via CityLab.

The Portuguese capital will ban through-traffic in the heart of downtown. For now, the plan is temporary.

This will make parts of the city like Bairro Alto even more enjoyable.

@BrentToderian Not the latest, if it’s for capitals, cars can still cross Paris (but 4 center districts on Sunday), and all other cities can still be crossed :(.

@BrentToderian We should ban through traffic in Salt Lake, 500 S. / 600 S. is more than capable to take all the traffic from past Downtown anyway.
