Limmatquai for trams and pedestrians
The pedestrianisation of Limmatquai will take effect from 25/26th September of this year. This project had already been decided in a referendum in 1999, but execution was blocked by objections, primarily from the automobile lobby and their proxies. For the trams which use Limmatquai, pedestrianisation should improve punctuality (at present, trams are frequently caught in congestion here). Pedestrianisation only affects the section between Rudolf-Brun-Brücke and Münsterbrücke (this is the narrowest section, trams use dedicated lanes in the other parts). Preparatory work will begin next week. By 2006, this prime waterfront location will additionally be upgraded by architechtural measures. 20 Minuten
