Severn TAG - Severn TAG Types

Severn TAG Types

There are two types of Severn TAG

• Season Tag This type of tag allows the user to purchase a set period of time in which you can cross an unlimited amount of times, the tag may only be used on one vehicle and is not transferable between vehicles. A saving can be made if the user makes more than 17 journeys per month in a class 1 vehicle (car) when using this type of Tag. There are different levels of payment for different classes of vehicle.
• Trip Tag This type of tag is a pay-per-journey tag, useful if the user intends to make fewer than 17 journeys per month with a class 1 vehicle (car). Credit is added to an account each month by Direct Debit or by cheque. When the user passes through the toll, the amount of the toll is deducted from the account. An indication at each toll lane informs the user that their account credit is low. If there is no money in the account then the Tag is declined and the user must have to pay with cash. The trip tag is transferable between vehicles of the same class, i.e. between two cars but not a car and a truck which would evade paying for the correct type of vehicle.

Both types of Tag require a £30 Deposit. If the tag is lost or stolen, a new one is issued after payment of another £30 deposit.
