they're currently re-planning the city centre in brighton to make it safer for pedestrians & cyclists - the model they're following is i think based on scandinavian city centres - where they remove the kerbs, creating a more seamless transition between the road and the pavement. as a result it slows traffic and makes drivers more aware of peds and bikes. what they've done so far works really well. i'm no expert, but seems like a good idea. perhaps this should be considered for Oxford st too.
