Kuala Lumpur City Hall's decision to allow restaurant operators to place tables and chairs on walkways has drawn safety and accessibility complaints from city dwellers and diners. Residents from Jalan Klang Lama and Bangsar Baru say pedestrians, wheelchair users and parents with infants are forced onto busy roads, and accuse the council of prioritising revenue over urban mobility.
