What the petition asks
Their is no need for the Severn bridge to have tolls! It is proven that they don't need it anymore. It makes 90 million and the mantence costs are 15 million...so where's the rest of the money going?!
You don't pay to go to Scotland....so why do we have to pay to go to Wales.

In 2015 overall revenue from the tolls was over £90m, while it had been suggested that maintenance costs amounted to between £13m and £15m.
It would be a major boost for the Welsh ecomony, but it is getting held back from getting that vital boost.
