Cork traders urged to give incentives-laden car ban ‘a fair chance’
Cheaper bus fares, reduced parking charges, and an extended park and ride service are among a package of measures being introduced in Cork city tomorrow in a bid to smooth the reintroduction of the controversial afternoon car ban on the city’s main street.
Some 111 days after it was suspended amid uproar after a trader backlash, the daily time-regulated bus priority lane will be reintroduced on St Patrick’s St tomorrow, with access limited to buses, taxis, emergency vehicles, cyclists, and pedestrians from 3pm to 6.30pm daily.
