Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will (a) make an assessment of the equity of the tolling scheme and (b) investigate the operational problems with the administration of tolls on the Mersey Gateway Bridge; and if he will make a statement.
The Government has no plans to make an assessment of the equity of the Mersey Gateway tolling scheme. The operation of the tolling system is the responsibility of the Merseylink consortium and Halton Borough Council, promoter of the Mersey Gateway project.
