Dartford Crossing price increase comes into effect

The changes come into effect on Monday with the Transport Minister Lilian Greenwood previously telling parliament the price hike was due to increased demand since 2014. "The crossing has grown 7.5%, with the crossing now used by an average of more than 150,000 vehicles every day and up to 180,000 vehicles on the busiest days," she said. "Current charging levels are no longer sufficient to achieve their stated aim of managing demand so that the crossing works well for users and local people."
