How it works

Our free flow tolling system means we do not use pay booths. This helps reduce journey times and minimise congestion.

There are different discount plans available to suit your needs. These include plans for Halton residents and Blue Badge holders, as well as pre-pay, monthly pass options. There is also a pay as you go account for occasional users.

Remember - if you do not register for an account, you can pay the full toll/charge up to 12 months in advance of a crossing or by midnight the day after your crossing.

  1. Register Your Vehicle

  2. Choose a Payment Method

The Merseyflow tolling system is being operated by Emovis, a global leader in toll-based mobility solutions appointed by Halton Borough Council (The Charging Authority).  Emovis help millions of motorists travel seamlessly along some of the world’s most advanced and busiest cities and highways.
