Nevertheless, the design of vehicle barriers has a clear effect on pedestrian traffic. Switching from boom barrier to bollards outside the parliament and switching from concrete blocks to bollards in Kongens gate, improved the accessibility for pedestrians.

Video counting showed minimal changes in pedestrian traffic in both places.
