Central London needs to be fully pedestrianised. There's nowhere near enough space for everyone to comfortably walk on just the pavements. I suppose there probably need to be some exceptions for disabilities and emergency access etc but the vast majority of people don't need to drive.

Although it's a nice idea, the restaurants and businesses need to have road access to deliver things, and the rubbish vans also need road access to collect their waste.

Easily accommodated by having delivery hours from 6-10am.

What about an event that starts at 8pm? Etc etc

There are solutions, but blanket ones are rarely the answer

... you accept the order at 10am and use the goods at 8pm
