The Clare based former President Of The Irish Road Hauliers Association is claiming the Irish Government is shooting themselves in the foot by further increasing toll charges across the country.
Transport Infrastructure Ireland has announced that Heavy Good’s Vehicles will see a 10-cent increase on the eight major roads, including the N18 Limerick Tunnel.

Irish Road Haulage Association Spokesperson, Eugene Drennan, claims that these increases at the hand of the Irish government further exasperates the current cost of living crisis.
