Hello everyone. Was Liverpool way this week and the obvioue route would have been through the tunnel (Mersey i think) but only had £3.20 with me and didnt think this was sufficient so phoned depot to see if they knew. They didnt.
Consequently i made a rather large detour .
Looking on the net i found a list of sorts for cars but not hgv.
So i propose we gather as much info as possible about bridges and tunnels here and then collate it into a useful document.
So, could anybody with the info please post it here in a form such as :- “West Liverpool, North tunnel A123 cat 2 £3 cat 1£5.”
(return or one way as appropriate for islands)
I the moderator wishes to get involved your very welcome etc etc.
Never knew that! Thought it would be a few quid at least as the bridge looks fairly impressive side on.
Many a time I’ve gone the long way round from south of the river through the Clyde Tunnel (free by the way) and joined back up the Gt W Rd. Would have cost me more in fuel!
humber bridge and severn bridge are basically saying if you’ve got a wagon we don’t want yer! i’ll not use either out of principal even if it means going twenty mile out of my way.
Dunham bridge (A57to lincoln) raelly bugs me after all these years its paid for itself 10 times over.Why should we still be paying .private enterprise at its best.

Chuck a choccy bar or a couple of bags of crisps at them. You’d be suprised .

Blackwall tunnel…free…but height limit in operation 13.4 inches
Truckyboy…is this a tryping error or has the Blackwall collapsed?
This years AA Atlas CM says it’s 13.3.
The height limit is for NORTHBOUND traffic. I think SOUTHBOUND is 16’, I know I have taken a highcube container southbound on many an occasion.
There is no height restriction southbound … northbound is 4.0 metres or 13’3" … my trailer goes through at 13’1" :O))))) BUT I only tend to use the northbound at night as a ‘just in case’
