I'm sure that there are redundant industrial sites north and south of the river on or not far from the river, that could be utlised for these up/down river from Thurrock. These would be easier and cheaper to put in and in less time than it would take to build bridges or dig tunnels. Plus they could be cheaper than the tunnels and bridges ... Woolwich is currently free. That would spice things up a bit, close to the current set up. I wonder if Thurrock/Essex and Kent Councils would go for it and provide a free service, probably not as they don't have the bottle. What amazes me is that the supposed combined intelligence of the Commons can't see that the current set up is a squeeze point/bottleneck and causes untold problems each side. Putting more tunnels.bridges in would only serve to exacerbate these problems. The other problem with another bridge/tunnel close to the current position is who would use it? If it cost the same or more than the current tolls, where is the incentive to go x miles out of your way, just to use a different one. I'd stay on the M25 and use the old ones."
