Do I Have to Pay for the Blackwall Tunnel?
Ask a Question
I have tried googling, however there is confusion if using black wall tunnel falls under Dart charges. Do we have to pay £2.50 for using black water tunnel ! Kindly anyone who is sure about it to answer it please.
I had a quick Google and found this
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan has confirmed that drivers will have to pay a toll to use the Blackwall tunnel from 2025. East London's Blackwall tunnel is currently free to use but endures high traffic and congestion. Silvertown Tunnel is being built to divert traffic from the Blackwall Tunnel and will open in 2025.
martinlufc5637 I hate Blackwall tunnel (well done for translation, I was thinking that's one I've never heard of) because it is so old. I used to travel it regularly when parents were alive and always feared it caving in lol.
Come to think of it I don't like Dartford tunnel or QE2 bridge but luckily just short of phobic.
martinlufc5637 so dart charges crossing and black wall tunnel crossing are two different things. Thanks
shazzi Dartford tunnel is near London but it is on the M25 connecting Essex and Kent. It is a bridge (QE2) going in to Kent and a tunnel coming back out to Essex.
I don't know how many tunnels are in London, Rotherhithe is one, seems to me mostly bridges across the Thames.
Maybe you can Google a map of London and familiarise yourself with the area. Or maybe buy a map of the area if you are staying in the London area.
