Transport Minister considers toll as motorist boycott urged
Minister Leo Varadkar made his comments in a letter to the Cork Business Association after it outlined its members’ opposition to any proposed toll on the vital road link which carries up to 68,000 vehicles a day.
The minister said commuters in Dublin face multiple toll points close to each other on some of the major roads around the capital. His statement has fuelled fears that the tunnel will be tolled despite the location of a toll bridge a few miles north, near Watergrasshill.
