Businesses and residents in Bath are fighting net zero measures such as roadblocks, bollards, and digital permits, which they say will stop them from moving freely around the historic city.
Bath, a UNESCO world heritage site famed for its Roman baths and links to the writer Jane Austen, is introducing a raft of environmental measures aimed at achieving “a major shift to mass transport, walking, and cycling.” However, many residents are arguing that the measures are anti-car and anti-democratic, and that they are dramatically changing the way people live in and move around their city.
