GB News: Motorists ditch major toll routes in favour of free crossings as Sadiq Khan faces chaos over £2bn project
Thousands of drivers are avoiding new tolls on the Silvertown and Blackwall tunnels, opting instead for the free Woolwich Ferry, which has seen a significant increase in traffic. This shift has led to longer queues and more lorries using the ferry, prompting Transport for London to monitor the situation.
The tolls, introduced by Mayor Sadiq Khan, aim to manage traffic and fund tunnel maintenance, but many drivers find the charges too high. Despite the congestion at the ferry, some drivers report improved conditions on the Blackwall Tunnel due to reduced traffic.
