Late yesterday afternoon we heard that the city council has decided to make some streets in the city center one way for pedestrians this weekend (and possibly every weekend from now). This is also in our street, from the bridge to the left of us, all the way into the city center towards the right of us.
I've just put up a notice on Facebook, with direction if people come from the direction of the city center. I also uploaded a map I found of the one way situation. I'm also thinking of taping an arrow in front of the door to remind customers exiting which way they have to go.
The business association is also going to put stickers on the pavement in front of our store for people waiting to stand on, so they keep 5 feet apart from each other. In addition I just made signs to put on the window asking customers not to park their bikes in front of the window (which is something that annoys me anyways) but across the street. In the last couple of days we've seen people waiting and people parking/getting their bikes getting too close to each other.
We are seeing that people are finding it harder to keep their distance from each other. Not just during the weekend when it's busy outside. But also in the store we've had to ask people to keep apart. Also when I was coming home from the supermarket on Wednesday someone walked up really close behind me and then past me. That was just after 9am, when it was really quiet and there was enough space to keep apart.
