Why not have shared zone on Ettalong waterfront?

I read with interest (Peninsula News 501) “Lane between surf club to be primarily for pedestrians”.
What a great improvement that will be for all Peninsula residents.
Why not go further and enhance pedestrian access along The Esplanade between Barrenjoey Rd and Beach St?
The Esplanade could become a shared zone with streetscape facilities for the Peninsula community to enjoy.
