• The closure of the northbound section of the Gateshead flyover to make it cycle-only
  
  
• The creation of new cycle routes in the Oakwellgate area and on the approaches to the Tyne Bridge
  
  
• The removal of all traffic except for buses, cyclists and pedestrians from a section of Askew Road where it joins the Tyne Bridge
  
  
• The elimination of buses and other traffic from the historic Bridges Quarter except for access and deliveries.
  

Unfortunately, I can only see the problem of pollution shifting elsewhere.
I can't get my head around the first point at all.
