The Dunedin City Council’s preliminary concept design for a one-way southbound George St aims to give increased priority to pedestrians and cyclists. IMAGE: DUNEDIN CITY COUNCILA block of Dunedin's main street will be lit up next week as part of a trial allowing residents to experience what the area may look and feel like in the future. George St, between Hanover and St Andrew Sts, will be closed to northbound traffic from 9am next Wednesday to 8am the following Monday. A public event, Glow Dunedin, will run from Friday to Sunday during the closure. A two-way ''slow street'' would be created in the block between Frederick and Albany Sts.
