Have you moved to T-FLOW yet? 

Soon your Fast Tag will become obsolete and will no longer work. You can change your account to a T-FLOW account here.  

 It’s easy – just log onto your account and enter your car registration, then within 30 minutes you can travel through the tunnels as usual. 

All we ask is that you return your old Fast Tag to us so we can dispose of it securely and in an environmentally responsible way. Just hand your old tag in at the toll booth next time you travel through Mersey Tunnels and we will do the rest.   

If you need any help you can email our T-FLOW Team or call our Contact Centre Team on 0151 330 1004 

Open a T-FLOW prepaid tolls account and you will benefit from reduced tolls through the Mersey Tunnels. And if you live in the Liverpool City Region and drive a class 1 vehicle for personal (not business) use, you can get a further reduction on tolls.

Liverpool City Region Residents' Discount  

If you drive a Class 1 vehicle and live within the Liverpool City Region (with local authorities of Halton, Knowsley, Liverpool, St Helens, Sefton and Wirral)  you are entitled to a discount on your journeys. You will need a pre-paid toll account and you must not be travelling for business reasons. For all other users the Class 1 toll is £2.00. There are no changes to the toll fees for Class 2, 3 or 4 vehicles for either pre-paid accounts or cash payments.  

  

Escort Fees 

Additional charges will be made for vehicles of exceptional height or width which require a Police escort. 

From April 2023  the charges will be as follows: 

  • Control of one lane £22 
  • Control of two lanes £50 

Unpaid Fees and Tolls 

There will be an additional charge of £16 for administrative costs if escort fees or outstanding tolls remain unpaid after 14 days. 

Breakdown 

If your vehicle breaks down, we will move it to a safe place at one of the tunnel entrances. You must then arrange to have your vehicle recovered from there. If, however, your vehicle cannot be easily towed because of its size or type we will have to arrange a specialist recovery service who will charge you for this.
