It seems they are changing the payment system at the Dartford Crossing. They are doing away with cash payments (motorcycles are not charged), so there will be no attended positions, which affects us, see below. The new system will be a non stop flow with no barriers.


See... Dartford Crossing Changes



Just sent an email to the Highways Agency, asking how this will affect Motorcycles.









Dear Sir,



r.e. Dartford Crossing



Currently, The rules are; that motorcycles stop at manned barriers, and the attendant then opens the barrier.



What will be the procedure for a motorcycle to use the Crossing, after the introduction of the Remote Payment Scheme (I am assuming that there will be no attended barriers)?



Thank you,



(me)


I will pop the reply in when it comes!
