Another said: “Tesco really need to have a rethink One way system in the Southampton teboura way store removed has meant it is difficult to social distance from people walking randomly all over the place and a group of four in store today as well!”
Others pointed out that the WHO guidelines still state that a “one-way flow” should be used where possible.
