Liverpool's car free day has been branded a 'disaster' after heavy rain put people off cycling and 'confusing signage' and diversions lead to traffic jams.
The Labour-run city council closed a large part of The Strand to traffic yesterday morning as part of World Car Free Day, with the planned closure due to continue until 4pm with a range of activities set to take place on the road.
" 'Car free day' on the main road through the city. Sounds great on paper. Of course I want better air. But the road to hell is paved with good intentions; and the execution and unintended consequences are dire."
