The Boston Auto Restricted Zone Demonstration Project, to be implemented in September 1978, represents an attempt to rationalize auto, transit and pedestrian circulation patterns in the central business district of a major U.S. city. The demonstration includes such elements as the restriction of autos from certain streets, major re-routing of traffic, improved bus service into the area, improved sidewalk facilities, additional goods movement and loading areas, and a relocation of taxi stands. The demonstration site is located in the Boston central business district, in which roughly 120,000 people are employed and in which roughly 25% of the city's retail trade is conducted. There are a number of objectives associated with the Boston ARZ project, which includes increased retail sales, increased transit ridership, increased transit productivity, increased pedestrian activity, and improved environmental quality.
