Trucker's Hall of Shame
This page will publicly name and shame truckers who use Julianstown
regularly. We'll publish photos, and other details of the worst offenders
for convoys, speed, night-time and weeekend
use.
We'll also publish contact details so that you can let them know what
you think.
We would
welcome email from truckers
about what their thoughts are on tolls etc.
Some points to
bear in mind
-
Trucks only
pay between €3-4 at the toll taking into account a special
negotiated discount, multi-trip discount and VAT refunds.
-
Even if the
M1 was 10-15 minutes shorter than going through Drogheda labour costs
alone would account for this. HGVs gernerally use in the region of
4-5mpg. Any reduction in speed and or stop start significantly
increases fuel costs. There are 14 sets of traffic lights and at least
5 roundabouts between Julianstown and Monasterboice.
-
There
doesn't seem to me any financial reason for trucks to avoid the toll
-
On the
other hand there are no services on the motorway so it is natural for
truckers to pull off to refuel and eat.
-
The trip
through Drogheda is actually shorter in distance than taking the M1.
-
Let the
truck owners know.
