The River Mersey (Mersey Gateway Bridge) (Amendment) Order 2016
This Order amends the River Mersey (Mersey Gateway Bridge) Order 2011 (“2011 Order”). This Order allows Halton Borough Council to make a road user charging scheme under the Transport Act 2000 in place of the tolling provisions in respect of the Mersey Gateway Bridge and Silver Jubilee Bridge to enable an open road charging scheme to be introduced. It also modifies the provisions in the 2011 Order that relate to the enforcement of the payment of tolls and charges if no road user charging scheme is in force.
