I think that's a 40p increase in 2 years, bearing on mind it's each way that's like getting a little pay cut for us that work through thereLifted from their email.
Class 2 increasing to £2.40 and Class 3 increasing to £4.80.
So I log onto the website to check what class is for each. It doesn’t say.
Do we assume a car is class 2 as that’s 20p higher than current.
Oh, and impeccable timing with the Tyne Bridge.

It's not exorbitant
Aye you'll have escaped a fine.Wankers. I used it Wednesday tea time and forgot to top up my pass until this morning, was convinced midnight last night would’ve been the cut off and a fine waiting for me but it’s taken the money out I topped up with so hoping that means I’ve escaped.
It's actually a bit more than that I think as I was quoting the price you pay when you have an account. In fact when I started working through there it was £3.42 return trip, it's been £3.96 since may 2023, with the increase its going to be £4.32. So that's 90p per day for some people, knocking on £20 per month extra, for what?Isn't that around 5% per annnum

They made £20m profit last year and somehow employ over 100 people.Because of a very shady and murky PFI deal that was done to finance it, despite the fact there are various other road tunnels in the UK which weren't procured and built in this way and subsequently are toll free.
So were all roads before the local authority purchased the land to build a road on it.It's private property isn't it?
"The tunnel was constructed under a private finance initiative 30-year "design–build–finance–operate" contract by Bouygues Construction."
Project started in 2008, so the finance should be paid off in 2038.
I bet the charges don't stop though!

The TT company is owned by the 5 nearby councils IIRC. Just seems like a tax to me.
