The proposal from the governing MP, S and L to investigate how the transit traffic can be fired away from Kungsgatan risks increasing the pressure on Dragarbrunnsgatan. Therefore, the proposal includes saying no to transit traffic even there.

This means that only cars that have a case in the city, as well as regional buses will be allowed to drive on Kungsgatan and Dragarbrunnsgatan.

Uppsala City cooperation warns that other cities have investigated similar issues for a very long time, unlike Uppsala where the change is proposed to be introduced as early as next year.

- We can't just turn off without investigating properly, I think that is very important. I don't think the traders in the city think this is a great decision, ”says Lisa Thörn, CEO of City Cooperation.

Motorists positive

But motorists driving on Dragarbrunnsgatan on Tuesday morning were more positive.

- I think it is enough to get in for those who really want to come here, says Roland Liljegren.
