Reopen Bank Street to all traffic. It is an essential part of Richmond's street grid and is unnecessarily included in the security theater you have created around Capitol Square. An open grid allows for more activity by all types of users where you have contributed to creating a dead zone in the middle of Downtown Richmond for most of the year when there is not a specific event happening at Capitol Square. Please think of the City as it is inhabited and experienced by pedestrians and cyclists, for whom a detour costs much more time than car drivers, and not merely as suburbanites driving into the city on occasion.
