NRA collects €12m in fines from M50 toll

MORE than €12 million in fines has been collected by the National Roads Authority (NRA) this year from motorists who have failed to pay the M50 toll on time.

About 25 million people have used the barrier-free tolling system between January and September, generating €71m in revenue.

According to the NRA, some 73% of M50 users had either an eFlow video account or an on-board toll tag allowing for automated payments from that customer’s account. There was a total of 5,206 summonses issued between January and September for unpaid tolls.
