Re: Re: Proposal to ban private cars from Dublin city centre

Is there any figures available for the financial benefit of this? (because lets face it thats what everything is about;) )
I am easily willing to make sacrifices if the economic benefits are great
and for the projected congestion on surrounding streets?

I cant gauge what people think at home, but it just seems too radical to pass a vote(you know how we irish dont like change)
Maybe some watered down version like no cars between 7am and 7pm would have a better chance

There was an idea floated around here only a couple of weeks ago to pedestrianise the entire length of 42nd street and ruin some light rail on it. Nice idea, but i think it died out fairly fast
