Four shillings and sixpence or 4/6 (22½p) is the price of a return car journey across the Tamar Bridge. A single toll was initially 3s (15p) and for lorries 14s (70p) and £1 return. The road bridge is part of the A38 dual carriageway linking Devon and Cornwall and was constructed from 1959 and opened to traffic at 6am on 24 October 1961 replacing the Saltash Ferry. Plymouth City Council and Cornwall County Council who financed the bridge have reviewed the toll charge.
