A full car ban on South William Street is a step closer after the pedestrianisation of the street was included in Dublin City Council 's development plan.
The south inner-city street is very popular and has some of the city's most well-known pubs and restaurants. There have been trail pedestrianisations on the street which were popular.
Green Party Councillor Claire Byrne said one car park can't stop the move to pedestrianisation. She said: "One of the biggest barriers has been the Brown Thomas carpark which is now known as the Grafton Street carpark. Their exit comes onto the bottom of South William Street.
