Convoys of trucks, buses, and cars will heading to Dublin this morning.
Midlands Motorists are being warned of major disruption as protestors hit the roads for Dublin this morning, over rising fuel costs.
'The People of Ireland Against Fuel Prices' group says thousands of trucks, buses and cars will eventually merge into one large convoy heading into O'Connell Street at around 11am.
Extreme delays are being reported on the N52 around Tullamore, while convoys are expected on the M7 and the N4 as well.
Aontu leader and Meath West TD Peadar Toibin says everyone's affected by rising energy prices and today's protest is about removing carbon tax, and further reducing excise duty on fuel:
Gardai say they're not in a position to "provide accurate or detailed advice to the general public" regarding this morning's protests.
Officials say they've had "limited interaction with some persons involved in publishing information about these convoys."
Motorists are asked to watch for Garda press releases and information updates on Garda social channels.
Garda Press says the force will "facilitate peaceful protest" but must also "balance and protect the rights of individuals to travel freely."
