M4 TOLL

Just catch a glance on the news,
M4 TOLL costs Truck £ 19.60
Car £ 6.50

They are battling to get toll prices reduced, …they’ve said that before :unamused:

Even more reason to avoid it now then.

Too right :unamused: :unamused: :unamused:

If you were doing a run from Bristol to Cardiff, it would be

43 Miles over the Severn River Crossing
100 Miles avoiding the Seven River Crossing

That was a quick calculation from Google - I am sure the route suggested has a weight limit or a low bridge on it.

I am sure your boss would appreciate you saving him/her the expense of the toll… :unamused:

We get it back if the tag doesn’t work for whatever reason, though these days it’s not often I travel that route. A couple of years ago it was a daily run with containers :sunglasses:

Noticed the sign the other week about the increase… I go over 5 nights/wk, every week, we have 2-3 go over on days from ours every week and about 50/wk from other depots and probably 10-20/day from the depot itself,which will soon increase…80ish, week in, week out :open_mouth:

Wow! That’s a lot, :confused:
But having said that , that’s just a small amount in comparison to every truck that goes over in the course of a week :open_mouth: think of the money they take on the toll booths, a Massive amount!!
I’m sure they mentioned something about privatisation and they are trying to reduce the toll right down to a low amount but enough to cover maintenance.

I went over it yesterday (once each way) it is getting expensive, I’m sure it’s gone up 3 times since I’ve been at this place (18 months).

Apparently it’s one of the most expensive toll roads in Europe when working on pound per mile and that’s just to get into Wales.

Let’s be fair who wants to go there anyway
