Written answers

Unlike other toll roads in the State, which are on the motorway and national road network and fall under the remit of Transport Infrastructure Ireland, the Tom Clarke (East Link) toll bridge is on the R131 regional road. As such, Dublin City Council is the relevant authority for all matters relating to the Tom Clarke bridge, and questions regarding the operation of the toll scheme on the bridge should be directed to the council.
