    That great. All we need is a ton of removable bollards installed in and around every location where people will congregate on foot. Easy, that’s just every mall, convention hall, farmers market, community festival, school, workplace, sports venue, religious institution, government office, hospital…

      Places that get pedestrianised one time each year do it with strong temporary barriers. Permanent car free places do other things to keep cars out

      They plant trees

      They install heavy concrete plant pots

      And some that want to perform security use bold stainless steel bollards

      It is harder to protect street sides, things like slowing down traffic (with road design, not speed limits) can help, adding protected bike lanes can help
