TRUCKERS have been informed that priority will be given to heavy goods vehicles exiting Dublin Port via the new tunnel after major traffic congestion was reported in the area yesterday morning.

OVER budget, over deadline but with not a leak in sight, the Dublin Port Tunnel (DPT) was finally opened yesterday with the promise of dramatically alleviating traffic congestion in the city.

The successful completion of the Dublin Port Tunnel could provide the springboard for a metro system serving the capital, it was claimed today.
