Regarding funding, that would be true if the funding from the
crossing went to pay for more crossings, but this isn't the case.
When the bridge was constructed it a joint venture involving a
company called Trafalgar House, amongst others. Not too long ago
the company controlling the crossing has become a French company
called Le Crossing, so do you think the revenue generated by Le
crossing will be funding more Le Crossings? I doubt it.

And if my costs do increase, I pass them on to the distributor /
shipper, who in turn passes them on to the consumer, which is you!
We are already paying enough taxes, why should we have to pay more.

Errrrmmm, to build more roads?

More tax at the same rate will do that (in spadefuls).

The same roads do not have to built anew every year, do they?
