Hi

The local newspapers here are leading with news that the new Socialist government have reached an early agreement with the Toll companies and their workforce to bring two toll roads back into public ownership, the two roads are the AP7 between Tarragona and Alicante and the A4 between Seville and Cadiz so from 1st January 2020 these roads will be Toll free which is good news for anyone coming too Spain this winter.

    FWIW ...

    We are due down that route on 5th & 6th January.

    According to Via Michelin for class 2 the toll should cost e47.85 (?) prior according to my AP7 coastal route calc for that leg of my trip.

    Will try and report afterwards. Thanks Phil

    There are still tolls in south Alicante and Murcia region though
