Commuters crossing the Ambassador Bridge today will find that the toll will cost them much less than it did yesterday.
Starting Tuesday, Feb. 18, the Ambassador Bridge is rolling out its new commuter fee of $2.60 (U.S.) – a two dollar increase from the previous fee of $4.60. The fee will apply to commuters crossing from either side of the border.
