TOLL FARES ARE to be increased on two of the country’s busiest roads from this coming Sunday, 1 January.

The M3 Clonee to Kells and the M4 Kilcock to Kinnegad motorways will see a toll hike of 10c.

Meanwhile, haulage companies stand to face a substantial hit – with charges for trucks increasing on all motorways. They have warned that the increase will add to the cost of moving goods and so impact on consumers.
