Details of the Traffic Management Contingency Plan have now been made available on Gov.ie.

It is important to note that no matter what happens in the ongoing Brexit negotiations, there will be major changes in how we do business with the UK from January 1st.

This traffic management plan, which is the result of close collaboration by many different agencies, is designed to deal with any congestion that may arise due to increased level of checks at Dublin Port and to minimise the impact on the Port tunnel, nearby motorways and the rest of the city.  

The ultimate aim of the traffic management plan is to ensure that there is minimal disruption to the flow of movement in Dublin Port and surrounding city, which can only be achieved if all stakeholders undertake to prepare to the best of their ability.
