There will be no toll booths; Merseyflow will use automatic number plate reading technology and registered users will also get a special sticker to attach to the windscreen of their registered vehicle to identify users as they cross the river.
There is free travel for eligible residents and disabled badge holders once they have paid a small fee, but everyone who qualifies will need to register through merseyflow.co.uk from summer 2017 to get the discount.
Construction work on the Mersey Gateway Bridge and connecting roads will continue until the autumn of 2017. Once the new bridge opens, the Silver Jubilee Bridge will close for around 12 months for repairs and improvements to further improve journeys.
The Merseyflow tolling system will be operated by8573 emovis, which operates similar schemes in the UK, Canada and Ireland.
