Re: Re: M3 Anti-tolls Online Petition – www.m3tolls.com

This is nonsense. They tried to peddle this line when the M1 Drogheda bypass was being opened about double tolling as well. I don’t know what annoys me more, the delays in construction of roads or the unwillingness of people to pay for them.
Why should the residents of Dublin’s city centre or indeed Donegal subsidise your motorway? Tolling is the most equitable form of taxation there is – the user pays.
This split tolling is perfectly acceptable as a fully automated collection system will be in place by the time this road is built.
