Cork City car ban ‘a recipe for disaster’

A businessman on Cork’s main street has branded the St Patrick’s Street car ban a “recipe for disaster”.

Eddie Mullins, of Fitzgerald Menswear, a business which has traded on the historic street for 160 years, said the restrictions, which come into effect on Tuesday, will cut off the lifeblood of the city and cause chaos.

“This partial ban defies logic and will cause chaos and confusion,” he said.
