In tandem with the rebound in post-war economy and consumerism the Government yesterday reserved the Main Street in Pettah as an exclusive shopping street closing it for vehicular traffic. The unprecedented move until Friday is to benefit thousands who throng the Main Street to do their pre-X’mas and New Year shopping as well as pavement hawkers and other small time traders.
