£274 million to upgrade 3 of the 45 junction on the M6 alone..
£4 Billion to upgrade the whole M6.

Motoring taxes generate £6 billion pa

Would you give a breakdown of motoring taxes?

VED is the only specific motoring tax, it raises £6billion pa of which £10billion is spent on motorway maintenance, even Autoholics Anonymous agree with that.


So the VAT on fuel, and tax on new cars, tax on vehicle parts/service.
tolls etc does not exist.

Paid by all road users but only motorists can use motorways.


Avoidance noted, you stated that VED was the only specific motoring tax.
