Government considering deferral of motorway charges including on the M4 Galway/Dublin

Galway Bay fm newsroom - The Junior Transport Minister says the government will consider deferring an increase to toll charges next year, including the planned 20 cent increase on the M4 Galway to Dublin motorway
