Pay your way? - Barmouth Bridge, Gwynedd
Not any more at least at present. In 2013 the couple who acted as toll collectors retired and Gwynedd County Council did not replace them, as it was thought uneconomic to do so. Bridge repairs were carried out in 1985-86 after an attack on the structure by the teredo marine worm but in the current economic climate, with Gwynedd County Council having to find £9 million worth of cuts to spending, the future of the bridge and access to it for walkers and cyclists is uncertain. Time taken 12.55 pm BST (British Summer Time).
