Upcoming changes for Blue Badge holders travelling through Tyne Tunnels
There is set to be changes from 31 March for Blue Badge holders who receive toll exemption when travelling through the Tyne Tunnels.
Drivers must register their vehicle for an exemption account prior to travel to receive their toll exemption. You will not be able to pull into the inspection lane to show your Blue Badge from 31 March.
This means that all Blue Badge exempt vehicles can drive straight through without stopping in their registered exempt vehicle, enjoying faster, smoother journeys.
