'These people are gouging us': Haulage association hits out at toll charge increase 

The Irish Road Haulage Association (said the increase of 10% for trucks would mean an annual increase of between €20,000 to €30,000 for companies in the northwest of the country.

The president of the Irish Road Haulage Association (IRHA) has expressed disbelief that toll companies would be “so audacious” to announce an increase in tolls at a time when there is a cost of living crisis.

Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) confirmed on Thursday that motorway toll charges across the country will rise to their maximum permitted price in the coming weeks.
