Toll bridge
A toll bridge is a bridge where drivers are required to pay a fee, called a toll, to cross. This fee helps fund the construction, maintenance, and operation of the bridge. Tolls can be collected manually, with toll booths, or electronically through systems like electronic toll collection. The goal is to share the cost of the infrastructure among users, reducing the burden on a single government entity. Toll bridges are common in many areas and can help improve transportation infrastructure while managing traffic flow and generating revenue for ongoing upkeep.
