Covent Garden

If you don't know what or where Covent Garden is then you're missing out big time. Covent Garden is set in London’s West End, Covent Garden is a major draw for visitors and Londoners who enjoy its many attractions, including shopping, theatre, restaurants, bars, history and culture. Things to see in and around Covent Garden include the London Transport Museum, the Royal Opera House, Somerset House and Covent Garden Market. There are several smaller areas within Covent Garden that are worth exploring such as the The Opera Quarter, St Martin's Courtyard, Seven Dials, Neal's Yard and Floral Street.

Oxford Street will be pedestrianised by 2020, the mayor of London’s office has announced.The central London shopping hub is one of the busiest in the capital and is visited by more than 4 million people each week.The plan will be rolled out in two stages to reduce disruption on the 1.2-mile stretch of road.

The ban would be first implemented on the eastern section, from Oxford Circus onwards, she said. The plan, reported in the Times, is part of a commitment by the new mayor, Sadiq Khan, to tackle air pollution in the city. He has already pledged to introduce a charge for the most polluting vehicles.The pedestrianisation will coincide with the opening of Cross rail – a new east-west train line for the city.

Covent Garden is one of the one places you're most likely to find me, always window shopping, occasionally treating myself after a long day of ' shopping'. I feel like this is a positive for London itself but also pedestrians will have more space for us crazy shoppers to get around with out knocking into people.
