Tolls are due to rise by the maximum amount allowed on 9 of the country's toll roads.

Gardai hope to have the road re-opened later this afternoon.

6 people died on the roads over 24 hours last week.

It’s believed the three-vehicle crash happened after one of the cars was travelling in the wrong direction along the M6 motorway.

The section of the M6 Motorway was one of fifteen major road projects that finished significantly over its original tender agreement price.
