Paris Mayor: I want a city with less cars. Perhaps it's controversial, but I think I'm on the right side of history. I had lobbyists from car companies threaten me in my own office.

I went for an event in Paris a couple of years ago that was held on an annual day they had where they didn’t allow any pedestrian traffic into the centre core.

Did you mean that private cars were disallowed here?

It sounds a bit dystopian to ban pedestrians, but the context makes it seem like pedestrians were allowed and private cars were not.

Yeah, private cars. Sorry, migraine the past couple days and sometimes my words don’t come out the way they worked in my head hahaha.
