It's Friday morning and we are now into day four of fuel protests around the country. The Government is expected to meet with protest organisers later today to consider measures to ease fuel costs.

Thursday saw many petrol stations throughout Tipperary run out of fuel entirely, with few left in the county today that are stocked up in both petrol and diesel. 

In Tipperary, a number of roads are still affected by blockades, slow-moving convoys, and demonstrations. If you are travelling today, please bear in mind that many petrol stations are now without fuel and the following roads are still affected by protests:
