Dubliners have spent over half a billion euro on tolls since 2020.

The cost to consumers has been revealed under Freedom of Information figures provided by TII to 98FM.

They don't account for revenue earned from the East Link Toll Bridge, as that is owned by Dublin City Council.

Nationally, almost a billion euro has been paid by Irish motorists since the beginning of 2020.

Here in Dublin, that number is almost 550 million.

Our Chief Reporter Barry Whyte has been looking at the figures:

The M50 has earned 490 million euro in the last 3 and a half years, 55 million of that being earned from January to April this year.

While the Port Tunnel has earned over 56 million euro since the start of 2020.

11 million euro was spent by motorists using the M4 Kilcock to Kinnegad motorway, often used by commuters travelling to Dublin.
