The 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.
