Hockley would probably benefit from being traffic free but I do not believe it would be popular to send all the traffic down Great Eastern Road. I cannot see a lot that can be done to improve the shopping centre without pulling it down and starting again. If there is any money to spare it should be used to improve the station forecourt where there are no pavements and no drop-off turn round for cars. A situation that should have been addressed when the flats were built.
