The Dartford Crossing joins Dartford and Thurrock across the River Thames in London.The Crossing was first opened in 1963 and since then has been expanded several times to cope with increased traffic.There are no cyclepaths or footpaths in the tunnels or on the bridge. A free shuttle service is available for cyclists and pedestrians.All other vehicles, except Motorcycles, must pay a toll, except at Night when it is now FREE to cross.Tolls for both directions of travel are collected at toll boothes on the south side of the crossing.
