Default OT............Oslo declared it will become the first major city toban cars in its city centre

THIS is definitely one way to put an end to the ongoing debate between
cyclists and car drivers.
Oslo’s newly-elected leftist city government has announced it will move
to outlaw cars from the centre of the Norwegian capital by 2019.

“We want to have a car-free centre,” she told Reuters.
“We want to make it better for pedestrians, cyclists. It will be better
for shops and everyone.”

It will become the norm in many cities in the 2020's. Paris's last car free Sunday was a great success.
