How does a Tyne Tunnel permit work

An online application is to be submitted for a Tyne Tunnel permit. Once the application is processed, a tag will be received to fix the windscreen of the vehicle. As the vehicle approaches the toll lane tunnel, the toll system identifies the tag and confirms that the account has sufficient credit, after which the barrier will be raised to allow a pass-through. Cash will have to be paid if the account has insufficient credit.
