National Traffic Control Centre close to completion

DUBLIN Port Tunnel operator Egis Road and Tunnel Operation Ireland (ERTO) is nearing completion of the National Traffic Control Centre, the National Roads Authority’s (NRA) central roads management facility.

Already operating schemes such as toll plazas at North-Link (Dundalk), Mid-Link (Portlaoise), and South-Link (Waterford), ERTO will now assume a national operations and maintenance role for the NRA’s new control centre from the end of June.

ERTO chief executive Henry van der Pluym said: “We are delighted to take on the responsibility of operating the National Traffic Control Centre and look forward to efficiently and safely operating and managing traffic on these key roads and tunnels from the end of next month.
