Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 October 2011
641 Deputy Seán Kenny asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the revenue and profit raised from each toll bridge for each of the past three years for which figures are available; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [31303/11]
View answerThe statutory power to levy tolls on national roads, to make toll bye-laws and to enter into toll agreements with private investors in respect of national roads is vested in the National Roads Authority (NRA) under Part V of the Roads Act 1993 (as amended by the Planning and Development Act 2000 and the Roads Act 2007).
Noting the above position, I have referred the Deputy's Question to the NRA for direct response. Please advise my private office if you do not receive a response within ten working days.
The East Link Toll Bridge is the only toll facility on a non-national road. Financial information in respect of that facility would be available from Dublin City Council.
