It is odd that any roads around a city or town are tolled. If one examines the international situation, the main reason to have roads around a city or town is to avoid people travelling through them. If there is a toll in place it discourages those people from going around the town.

I am glad that Senator White has had suchpleasant experiences with the West Link toll bridge as I have found it to be incredibly slow. A friend of mine who is good with logistics and must frequently travel to the airport has said it is much quicker to avoid the M50 and to stay on the west side of the city through Phibsborough, Glasnevin and Ballymun until he reaches his destination.
