Road tolls to increase for second time in under a year from JanuaryMichael BoltonIrish motorists are set to be hit with another toll increase, with costs climbing by at least 20 cent in January. Transport Infrastructure Ireland (TII) approved these increases in tolls for 2024, in October 2023. For M50 and PPP toll roads most car tolls are increasing by 20 cent per journey and heavy good vehicles tolls by 30 to 50 cent per journey. In 2023, the expected tolling income of approximately €208 million will make up about 45 per cent of the overall Protection & Renewal budget for the national roads programme. TII said they will use the expected increase in income in 2024 to continue to fund the Protection and Renewal activities where significant increases in costs are being experienced due to inflation.
