I know in the early 90's the Severn Crossing was a toll bridge, if I remember correctly the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol was also a toll bridge as well, the M6 toll road might be a waste of money but lets be fair, I've also been stuck for hours on the motorway round about there before now!

There's a toll near me that's $6. The bridge isn't really long or amazing or anything, just a normal average bridge. It's the only way on to the island too.
I don't believe there's a single toll road or bridge in my entire province.

Don't need to pay tolls if you invest in an AK47
I got so excited about this thread, then I realized that I need to L2Read.

I would only have tolls for those coming into the country.

Welcome to NY.
Yeah, the GW bridge was $6 IIRC back in 2006 and 2007 when I lived in NYC, now it's $13. Pretty ridiculous.
I wanted to make a Monty Python bridge riddle joke, but I'm too lazy.

The problem is you can't go ANYWHERE in the lower mainland of British Columbia without crossing a bridge or using a tunnel. The entire area is basically built on a giant set of estuaries. You'll cross over or under a body of water every 5-10 minutes of driving. For most cases of toll roads and bridges on the rest of the continent, you usually can find an alternate toll-free route (the exception being large important crossings, borders, etc). A toll on every single crossing in Vancouver is, frankly, ridiculous.
I know! Need to get to the airport? Theres would be a fee! Heaven forbid you actually live on annicis island or sea island way. Even travelling from richmond to vancouver is 2 bridges because you need to pass by an island that basically only is an industrial park and a small town that I dont even know how it still exists. That place would be a ghost town within a year. People couldn't afford to live here without 20 bucks an hour
