Restricting the other roads would have a significant impact on those who actually live or operate their business from the places on the side streets, or for those with limited mobility who rely on disabled parking spaces. But let's make it all about the sodding buses without weighing in the consequences for other people.

The consequences to those you mention are exaggerated by the forcing of buses onto a few routes simply to pedestrianize a small part of the actual red zone. If sense was applied studies of cities with similar demographics would have been undertaken with due diligence.
