Where do you pay the toll looked on google cant see a booth
All the comments on line say that the booth staff are efficient and courteous so I would guess there are booths but I have not used the bridge .
It does get congestion at times .

You get stuck in a queue and some jumped up ■■■■ walks along collecting money.
Last time i used it was heading towards the m40, yes you can get an artic over it but it was a bit tight mainly due to overgrown hedges. Toll booths were shut when I went.
You’ll be fine.
The tripadvisor reviews are hilarious
Lots of people deriding the 5p charge but it’s tax free and nearly all profit:
A toll bridge over the River Thames was sold for £1,080,000 at auction today. [December 09]
Swinford Toll Bridge, near Eynsham, Oxfordshire, is governed by its own Act of Parliament which makes it a tax haven.
The bridge, in Conservative Party leader David Cameron’s Witney constituency, is one of the last toll bridges in Britain still in private hands.
Its buyer is exempt from paying income tax, capital gains tax, inheritance tax or VAT on the bridge because of the act passed in 1767 by George III granting private ownership to the Earl of Abingdon.
Motorists pay 5p per car, and up to 50p per lorry, to cross the bridge, a Grade II*-listed structure.
Just under four million vehicles use the bridge to get in and out of Oxford city centre, which is six miles away, every year and it is especially busy during rush hour. It has a gross annual income of around £190,000.
Considering that the original toll for “Every carriage whatsoever with 4 wheels” was 4d in 1769, it’s pretty good value. If it had gone up in line with inflation it would be around £30.00. To give a comparison, a labourer then would have earned around 25d a day. 25d is just over 10p in today’s money.

That’s top money, for a class1 driver nowdays. 
10p per axle, Booth is Eynsham end of the Bridge for both directions, Guys in booth are good. If you have lift axle up they dont tend to charge for it, only the axles touching the ground. Not the widest bridge, bit tight passing a bus and prone to congestion but handy to skip through from A40 to A420 missing out Peartree.

Buses are pretty good it’s van drivers in particular glazing ones with the metal frames fitted to the sides you have to be wary of.
