What the petition asks
Open up the 20 yard stretch of pedestrianised area on lime street to allow one way traffic out of the city centre to reduce congestion
This issue will not get reviewed on a local level and needs government intervention to push these changes through. The current system has split the city centre in two and is causing a lot of bottlenecks
