M6 Toll T2 to T8 cost

T2 (Wishaw) is in Zone A and T8 (M6 J11a) is in Zone C, so a journey between them covers Zones A, B and C and pays the 3-zone fare: £12.00 contactless or £10.20 on Breeze for a car. The road only lets you drive it southbound, from T8 to T2. T2 has no entry slip, so you join at T8 from the M6 at J11a and leave at T2 for Wishaw, the A446 and Sutton Coldfield. Heading north from the Wishaw side, join at T1 instead: T1 to T8 covers the same three zones at the same fare.
