Hearing Or Decision
Summary
A dispute over the award of the contract to operate tolling operations on the M50 motorway has been admitted to the fast track Commercial Court list. The action has been brought by TransCore LP against the National Road Authority operating under the name Transport Infrastructure Ireland over a contract worth between €200m and €400m. In its action, TransCore seeks various orders including one setting aside the Authority's decision to award a consortium called Turas the contract for the next generation eflow tolling operations and any future toll points on the M50 road network. It also seeks declarations from the court that the decision to award the contract to Turas fails to comply with the requirements of public procurement law and EU Directives relating to the award of contracts to operate public works. TransCore further seeks a declaration that the decision to award the contract to Turas, which was made on February 28th last, is invalid.
