Free pastries and cheap buses to sell Cork city car ban

Cyclists are being offered free pastries in a coffee shop today and Leap Card city fares have been cut to €1 as Cork’s main street goes car-free this afternoon.

The initiatives are part of a growing wave of positivity towards the reintroduction of the afternoon car ban on St Patrick’s St to create a time-regulated bus lane between 3pm and 6.30pm daily.
