Severn Bridges (Tolls)

Proceeding contribution from Jessica Morden (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 July 2015. It occurred during Debate on Severn Bridges (Tolls).

I thank the hon. Gentleman for his intervention. Various sectors, particularly transport but also tourism, are impacted by the tolls. Evidence from tourism businesses in the west suggests that the tolls make it more difficult to attract visitors from the south-west of England, for example. The charge also acts as a psychological barrier, as people have to pay to enter Wales.
