Thanks, link very interesting. Like many people I suspect, I hired a car at faro airport, car rental had signs up saying "new toll...on a22", I tried to find a way of paying, but my need to use Portuguese roads was simply to get to and from our house in Spain. Why the authorities expect road users to pull off the road, find a post office in a town to pay something like 3-5 euros worth of toll to get to Spain is beyond me! Not very bothered about paying, quite happy to if they actually find a vaguely convenient way of paying, just wondering whether anyone actually bothered. Good point about Spanish!

I realise this will only be relevant to those travelling from portugal into Spain. However having recently done so from faro airport to the costa de la Luz, where we have a house, I was informed that Portugal have announced a new motorway toll tax. But you can only pay for it by finding a open post office within 5 days of your trip. Why they don't have tolls is a good question. Does anyone know more about these tolls, how can they be paid, etc?
