That's a good idea, possibly the best solution. Ped-precinct only from
Baker St/Selfridges to Regent St. The biggest problem is where all
those buses will go.

This is a bad idea: "An 800m-long work of public art could be
commissioned". Sounds like a waste of time, space and money.


I reckon a tram down the middle would work fine just as it does in
Manchester.Â* I also think it could do with a narrow (one abreast in each
direction) cycleway down the middle.

No, just make it a pedestrian zone, but allow delivery vehicles after
midnight until, perhaps 6am.
