The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what decision she plans to take on the proposed changes to the toll for the Tamar Bridge crossing.

Answered by Lilian Greenwood

An application for revising the Torpoint Crossing tolls (for the Tamar Bridge and the Torpoint Ferry) was made by Cornwall Council and Plymouth City Council on Thursday 2 May 2024. A Public Inquiry in respect of that application is due to begin on 15 October 2024. As this is a live application, I am unable to comment on what the final decision might be.
