I think a sensible trial would be that the right hand lane of the A19 is only for using the tunnel, starting 2 miles back so plenty time to get in lane. Have it coned off. The left hand lane is for those needing to exit/enter the A19 in that 2 milesI wouldn't mind so much if the sodding queues didn't start at Testos every morning.
During rush hours they want to stop traffic joining at Wallsend and Jarrow.
Those two junctions cause all of the queues.
Its owned by the council though (well, jointly by 5). Its a bit of smoke and mirrors to say its a private company.It’s a private road not owned by the public.

Worra bout dartford tunnelFrom their email
The Tyne Tunnels are an integral piece of the North East’s road network and are privately operated and maintained roads. The operation and construction costs of the tunnels are solely funded by tolls, not council tax, and the toll change, applied under the terms of the River Tyne (Tunnels) Order, is necessary to cover the running and maintenance costs of the tunnels, and repay the costs of the construction of the second Tyne Tunnel, in-line with inflation.
Hence why good paying citizens have to pay moreNa, just missed a week when my reminder top up email went in junk folder, and I'm not paying 10 fines
It was, I definitely remember it being £1.10 but you could also use €2 coins which obviously made it more expensive but ideal to get rid of your euros left over from holidayIm convinced it was about a quid 10 year back
