A UK shopping centre tests a fast lane for walkers

Moving around in a crowded shopping centre can quickly become tiring when you are in a hurry. So a young 10-year-old girl told the UK Meadowhall shopping centre of her exasperation - and they are now testing a fast lane for walkers.

Despite her young age, a 10 year old girl informed the Meadowhall shopping centre of her exasperation concerning pedestrians within the centre. She explained the reasons for her dissatisfaction in a letter sent to the shopping centre. 

"I'm incredibly disappointed by people walking around your shopping centre - it annoys me so much that I want to scream. You should stop people walking slow as people are in a rush for work and this can cause people being late. It is dangerous because if someone bumped into you, that person will fall over".

So the shopping centre management reacted to Chloé's anger by putting in place fast and slow lanes, within its Sheffield store in the North of England. Actually being tested since last April, Meadowhall awaits its customers' reactions to keep or remove them.
