M3 tolls only small part of the price we pay

IT is depressing that only now, somewhat late in the day, Meath County Council has united in its opposition to the twice-tolled M3.

For motorists obliged to use it for commuting purposes, the daily toll will amount to €5.20 (or €26 a week).

But the multiple tolls are only part of the price we, as Irish citizens, will be obliged to pay.
