Free Mersey Tunnerl Pass

sappersmum

I suffer from fibromyalgia and have DLA - high care for mobility and I have just found out from a neighbour that I can go through the Mersey Tunnel in Birkenhead to Liverpool or the Wallasey Tunnel to Liverpool free of charge.

How?? well I had to get a form from the Mersey Tunnels in Birkenhead and send off a proof of DLA and my Free Car Tax form that I get for having Hight Rate DLA, 2 pictures and my Blue Badge for parking and lastly my vehicle registration document because it is only valid for 1 car.

It took about a week and I got a FAST TAG plastic fob thing through that fits on my car windscreen and it is valid i think for 1 year and they renew it once you prove you still get the benefit.

I have been really poorly for over 10 years now and this is the first I have heard of this - so if this can help even one person then I am happy.... It will save £1.30 each way each time you go to liverpool - with petrol and parking it made an expensive day out.

Any problems and you can contact me through here.

Good luck sappersmum

Thanks sappersmum
Didn't know about that.

I'm on DLA too but no longer own a car, rely on bus pass for travel.
But will pass on your info to others.
Thanks again.

There are discounts for several other Toll bridges, tunels and roads too, including the M6Toll. They are detailed in the book you get with the badge, at least in the recent ones.
