SPACE FOR PEOPLE?: Should more of Taunton be pedestrianised, like this plan in Oxfordshire?
NOW is the time to pedestrianise the town centre.
With the shops opening, the mad rush of people will undoubtedly overcrowd the pavements with queues.
With no traffic, people will be able to spread out walking in the road giving social distancing a chance making it safer for all.

At this point, car drivers are screaming blue murder, but they can get to all the car parks (free) no problem, and just a little walk into the centre.
For the disabled, park in multi-storey and lift to the Orchard shopping centre. This will bring more people into the town and get the businesses going again, which will benefit all.
