Environmental Effects of Pedestrian Mall
Pedestrian malls are places designated for people to walk and traffic will not be able to penetrate this place. Therefore, it affects environment positively. Air polluted by cars damages buildings. Removing vehicles from the community will decrease air pollution and maintain buildings in good condition. Furthermore, it contributes to reduce noise pollution too. Walkers can enjoy the surroundings without being interrupted by noisy cars. Once a clear environment is accomplished, it will also exert healthy influences on people such as decreasing obesity levels, stress, and lung diseases.

Famous quotes containing the words effects, pedestrian and/or mall:
“The ultimate result of shielding men from the effects of folly, is to fill the world with fools.”
—Herbert Spencer (1820–1903)
“However global I strove to become in my thinking over the past twenty years, my sons kept me rooted to an utterly pedestrian view, intimately involved with the most inspiring and fractious passages in human development. However unconsciously by now, motherhood informs every thought I have, influencing everything I do. More than any other part of my life, being a mother taught me what it means to be human.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
“A father ... knows exactly what those boys at the mall have in their depraved little minds because he once owned such a depraved little mind himself. In fact, if he thinks enough about the plans that he used to have for young girls, the father not only will support his wife in keeping their daughter home but he might even run over to the mall and have a few of those boys arrested.”
—Bill Cosby (20th century)
