New benches, picnic-tables, a two-way cycle lane protected by a line of raised-bed planters, and young trees positioned along the main street welcome visitors. Even on-street coffee-tables beckon. Traffic has been reduced to one-way and footpaths have been widened to twice or more of their pre-Covid dimensions.
