Maybe start the cut-off at Gladstone Road so trucks can get into the Safeway, which is an anchor retail establishment for the area.

And if you're using office workers in Kensington as a counterpoint, I'd like to know how many office workers there are in Kensington per capita and what would suggest they have prioritized car necessities.
Outside of liking car-free areas, what’s the actual case for cutting off all traffic on Kensington and 10th? I think you need to start there.

I think any case you might make can be achieved by cutting off traffic to Kensington Cres and the cut out streets, and removing street parking. I don’t see a benefit to removing all traffic, and certainly not one that overcomes the cost throughout the area. It would create an insane mess.

Kensington is just not an appropriate area for that approach. It doesn’t allow for it at all.
