No wonder their protesting, thats a pretty steep jump from £1:20. We use fast tags, i know they are slightly cheaper but i wonder if the increase effects those too? Putin khuilo

It was supposed to be free but they are saying that what they are still paying are the interest charges if i remember correctly? Personaly i don`t think they will ever be free. Putin khuilo

Not sure when you last used the tunnel... it's been £1.40 for a long time. The jump is 10p for cars, up to £1.50. Yes, fast tags are affected but still remain the cheapest way of using the tunnels.

Maybe there should be some kind of discount scheme for those that do? Putin khuilo

Maybe there should be some kind of discount scheme for those that do? Fast tag is 1.20, it's going up to 1.30 tomorrow. I think it's typical - councillors voting on the decision, when some councillors are working for Merseytunnel itself? What a joke. "C20 LET bang"
