Severn Bridge toll
« on: June 21, 2007, 10:34:19 »
I'm popping over to South Wales (Cwmbran) tomorrow and will be using the toll bridge. Does anyone know how much it costs for a car and do you pay both ways or just one?

Coming from the north I used to use the M5>A48 and only used the new Severn bridge on the way out of Wales.
I must admit I always smiled as I drove across it  :wink:

I shall be going to Wales in 2 weeks time for a holiday. Yes I know I'm mad!! I will be coming from the north so doesnt matter about the tolls this time!

If you talk very nicely to the barrier people sometimes they will let you go through for the next charge down. I last went through with a van and trailer and got away with a car ticket!! :D
