The toll on the Dartford crossing was removed a few years ago, after the
period agreed by the government of the day for recovery of the building
costs expired.
It was replaced the following morning by a maintenance charge.....
All legal, and it is now owned, I believe, by a French company, as is
the M6 toll near Birmingham.
Plus both Severn Bridges.
Incidently, the toll on these bridges make the Dartford crossing sound
like a bargain.
And they're all bargains compared to the M6 Toll. At least on the first,
last and only occasion I used it, towing my race car on a trailer, and
got charged for 2 cars and a trailer. £11. **** that noise.
That really is a rip-off
