Gardai have made changes to their Covid checkpoints plan to take lorries out of the long queues which thousands of motorists were caught in across the country yesterday.  

From 7am this morning, alterations will be introduced to two designated checkpoints on the N7 (Junction 6) and the M2 (Junction 2).
