Bi-annual Kara Kara bridge toll for Linden businesses

Linden businesses will be asked to pay fees for use of the Kara Kara Bridge twice yearly following a decision taken by the Linden Town Council at an extraordinary meeting on Monday.

The decision was made following a poorly-attended public consultation on the buildings and toll booth by-laws, which was held at the Egbert Benjamin Exhibition and Conference Centre in Linden.

According to Mayor Carwyn Holland, Linden-registered businesses would only be charged a small fee twice yearly for the use of the bridge.

“All documentation to that toll booth was already established years ago, it’s not a new thing,” Holland told the gathering, while adding that the only changes are rates in five categories.
