Stop charging tolls on the tamar bridge Plymouth to saltash
As most other bridges have stopped charging tolls why are we still having to pay here in devon / Cornwall it’s a high way and should be funded
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The operation of, and toll charged for, crossing the Tamar Bridge are matters for the Tamar Bridge and Torpoint Ferry Joint Committee. This Committee is made up of councillors from each of the two Joint Authorities, Plymouth City Council and Cornwall Council. This means the UK Government is not responsible for the action this petition calls for.
You could therefore start a petition calling for Cornwall Council to take this action. You can find out how to do this here: www.cornwall.gov.uk/the-council-and-democracy/campaigns-consultations-and-petitions/petitions/.
You could also raise your issue with a local councillor who represents you. You can find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them, by entering your post code here:
