One local truck driver says the rising fuel costs have left him at "breaking point".
A midlands haulier says he's taking to the streets on Monday as rising fuel costs have brought his business to breaking point.
Lenny Clavin, owner of Clavin Transport Services in Kilbeggan, says the price of diesel for his fleet has increased from 40,000 euro in April to 64,000 in November.
It come as the 'Irish Truckers' and Haulage Association Against Fuel Prices' is planning to protest again on Monday and is calling on taxis, farmers and even members of the public to join their ranks in demanding the government intervene.
The Westmeath trucker says his enterprise is not viable anymore:
It will see convoys of trucks travelling from Cork, Galway, Donegal, Wexford and Monaghan to Dubin early tomorrow morning.
Gardai say they're putting an appropriate plan in place to police the protest.
However, retail representatives are calling for no disruption to Public Transport, so Christmas shoppers can gain access to Dublin city centre.
Richard Guiney of Dublin Town, which represents traders in the Capital, said those protesting should have consideration for others at this time:
