  1. 1 – what conflict? I drive in there regularly and there is never any issue with pedestrians or cyclists. At 5km what conflict CAN there be?
    2 – lets see the people who want to ban the cars maneuver a couple of toddlers plus a twin pram plus all supplies for a picnic and nappy changing supplies into the gardens without losing supplies, a kid or their mind.
    3 – lets see the people who want to ban the cars in a wheelchair and trying to get to a suitable picnic spot. I’m sure the gravel on the roads will make it an interesting experience.
    They may as well ban all but the able-bodied because they will be excluding everyone else.
    The carpark below doesn’t cut it – there are not enough parks and access to the gardens from there is pathetic.
    If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
