pedestrian zones
Walking-only urban areas
Pedestrian zones are areas of a city or town where vehicle traffic is restricted or prohibited, allowing people to walk freely.
Typically found in historic centers or shopping districts, they prioritize foot traffic over cars: The city converted the downtown square into a pedestrian zone.
Also called pedestrian precincts or car-free zones.
