A Green Party city councillor in Cork has called for an extension of the so-called Pana ban amid mounting calls for more engagement on the city's proposed new bus network.

Oliver Moran said the time-regulated bus lane on St Patrick’s St - which bans private cars daily from 3pm to 6.30pm but which is being flouted regularly - should begin mid-morning.
