Protesters hail road tolls axe
THE National Alliance Against Tolls has welcomed the official abolition of tolls on the Forth Road Bridge.
The toll plaza is expected to be removed in February and the 1 fare abolished. A spokesman for the lobbying group said: "All the parties have voted for the Bill, but it is only right that it is primarily the SNP that should be thanked.
"Those of us who have campaigned against Scotland's tolls for many years have not forgotten that the SNP was the only party that in September 2001 voted against the reintroduction of the Erskine Bridge tolls."
