Yeah, in the article, one official who was skeptical actually makes a good point, that such closures work best when the businesses on that block are engaged, and that none of the businesses on that block of Liberty are open in the evening. Another official (who had doubts) suggested focusing on making the Main street closures permanent.
So it looks like there’s a strong positive feeling for road closures, but it’s just a question of where, and how to make them work best.
