It has been more than 2 years now that the residents of Gemayzeh have been voicing their cry of protest over the busy nonstop traffic jams caused by the nightlife of this buzzing street. Many complaints and strikes have been so far manifested in this street; the residents have had it with the noisy traffic in the late morning hours, along with the humming music coming from the cars or the pubs and sometimes drunken screams which usually rise in the late afterhours.
The owners also protest that many lives would be ruined if they changed their locations which they do not have the budget in the first place to, while also many employees would be hurt in the process.
