flag Dublin Port to raise container fees 46% by 2026 to fund infrastructure, sparking inflation concerns.

flag Dublin Port Company plans a 5% container fee increase and a €15 infrastructure charge starting in 2026, raising total container costs by 46% to €53.33, citing rising construction costs and a need to fund €170 million in annual capital investment through 2030 under its Masterplan 2040. flag The port, which handles 80% of Ireland’s containerized freight and facilitates €165 billion in annual trade, says the changes are essential for infrastructure upgrades and economic growth, and denies they will contribute to inflation. flag The Irish Road Haulage Association warns the fees may raise consumer prices for goods like food, fuel, and construction materials, calling the move self-sabotaging.
