Almost every visitor and restaurateur owner regrets that the main street Pedro Clisante is no longer closed for traffic in the evening.
It is true that some restaurant owners have signed a petition to open up the street again for (car) traffic.
Pedro Clisante
But only on week days and that the street would remain closed at weekends as a pedestrian zone.
To have the street open on weekdays there were indeed quite convincing arguments.
Especially in the first month the street was studiously silent and empty in the evening on weekdays.
But that had changed.
Even on weekdays there were many satisfied visitors at the terraces of the bars and restaurants.
But this petition did not have influence on the decision of the government.
The trial period passed and it is now being evaluated if the street stays a pedestrian zone in the evening for the future.
The advantages and disadvantages of the closure will be discussed.
