A view from the North Downs towards the Elizabeth II bridge over the River Thames, part of the Dartford crossing. This tolled bridge carries the M25 London orbital one-way traffic from Essex (north shore) into Kent (south shore) near Dartford, around 130,000 vehicles per day. Traffic in the opposite direction uses tunnels under the river. Meopham, Kent, England. August 2025.

My 6 year old kid asking what these random lights are as we are stuck in traffic trying to cross the Dartford crossing and turns out a Google search was both helpful and interesting.

Then we saw a horse bus.

Wow, the new Dartford crossing account management interface is a complete shitshow. Errors all over the place trying to revalidate my payment card. Also loving how all my statement history has disappeared and I can't get one for July. #dartfordcrossing #dartford

@anentropic I sympathise and hope you get it sorted in time.

I have a pre-pay balance in place, and 2 trips in the last week, the first went though pre-upgrade, the one from Friday still hasn't gone through, added a payment method on Sunday just in case.

As usual, "public service" IT systems a complete shambles.

UK GOV's Dartford Crossing charge website update not going so well I think...
Last week an email saying I'll need to login to re-enter my card details after *but not before* the 28th
On the 28th: "website down for maintenance until Sun 30th"
Mon 31st: "To manage high demand, you have been placed into a queue." ...my web request has been in this queue for > 30 mins now
