Except that they can close it when making an application, so why not. You don't live there so why do you care? Hardly anyone uses Memorial Drive on Sunday, so no big deal. And the point was to be disruptive to traffic for no apparent reason so as to draw attention to the inner-city environmentally-moral high ground the local denizens hold over the rest of the suburban, mouth breathing neanderthals (as prescribed by the chief granola-crunching alderman of this city on behalf of aforementioned higher spirits.)
