Road Tolls
Dail Éireann — 2023-06-22
============================================================

Martin Kenny (SF), Sligo-Leitrim

My question is on the PPPs that facilitate the toll roads across the country. There have been recent increases in tolls and these have been very difficult for many motorists, especially those with large vehicles, trucks, buses, etc. The cost of living is bearing down hard on people. It is my view and that of many others that these toll roads were from the first a very bad deal for the public and for the Government, but we are where we are on that. What has the Government done in the six months since the toll increases were deferred to ensure we can get a resolution to this problem?
