Petition Action

Remove the dart charge

Petition Details

Remove the dart charge/introduce a better discount for commuters outside of Thurrock/Dartford.

Additional Information

The charge to use the Dartford bridge/tunnel should have ended in 2003. A survey was apparently carried out in 2001 which would indicate that congestion would increase if charges were abolished.

I travel back and forth everyday through the tunnel and across the bridge for work and in my opinion there is always some congestion. I do not think the charges ease congestion in any way.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure whether you want the charge removed or reduced because the first line of your petition suggests both options.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
