The Westerscheldetunnel becoming partially toll-free means that vehicles in categories 1, 2 and 5 (less than three meters) can now pass without tolls. Vehicles in categories 3 and 4 (higher than three meters) continue to pay tolls.
Barriers remain
To ensure safe traffic flow at the Toll Square and to stop paying traffic, the barriers in the toll lanes will remain in place. The barriers open automatically for toll-free traffic. An exception to this is lane 5 for motorcyclists: here the barrier is raised for safety reasons and the lane has been narrowed.
