Exercise 52: Gap-filling 
Read the following text about pedestrian zones in cities.
A large number of European towns and cities have made part of their centres 
car-free since the early 1960s. These are often accompanied by car parks on the 
edge of the pedestrianised zone, and, in the larger cases, park and ride schemes. 
Central Copenhagen is one of the largest and oldest examples: the auto-free 
zone is centred on Strøget, a pedestrian shopping street, which is in fact not a 
single street but a series of interconnected avenues which create a very large 
auto-free zone, although it is crossed in places by streets with vehicular traffic. 
Most of these zones allow delivery trucks to service the businesses located there 
during the early morning, and street-cleaning vehicles will usually go through 
these streets after most shops have closed for the night. 
In North America, where a more commonly used term is pedestrian mall, such 
areas are still in their infancy. Few cities have pedestrian zones, but some have 
pedestrianised single streets. Many pedestrian streets are surfaced with 
cobblestones, or pavement bricks, which discourage any kind of wheeled traffic, 
including wheelchairs. They are rarely completely free of motor vehicles.
