DETROIT – The Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority has announced toll prices for the upcoming Gordie Howe International Bridge.
The new bridge connects I-75 in Detroit to Highway 401 in Ontario. The Detroit Regional Chamber called it “the most consequential infrastructure project in the state.”
---> Why the Gordie Howe Bridge was built
The Gordie Howe Bridge is owned by Michigan and Canada, but is being paid for almost entirely by Canada. While the bridge does not have an official opening date, it is still expected to open to traffic this spring.
On Wednesday, March 11, the Windsor-Detroit Bridge Authority announced both the toll prices and Breakaway, a toll discount program that allows vehicles to pass through toll lanes without having to stop and pay.
The following prices are listed in USD
| Toll | Breakaway Toll | |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Passenger | $5.75 | $4.35 |
| Small Trailer | Additional $5.75 | Additional $4.35 |
| Commercial Vehicles | $8.75 per axle | $6.90 per axle |
| Hazardous or Oversized Vehicles | $8.75 per axle | $6.90 per axle |
With Breakaway, the toll for passenger vehicles is less than half the current price to cross the Ambassador Bridge and the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel, both of which raised their tolls this year.
| Ambassador Bridge Toll | Detroit-Windsor Tunnel Toll | |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Passenger | $10 | $9 |
| Small Trailer | Additional $10 | Additional $9 |
| Commercial Vehicles | $20 per axle, or $15 with A-PASS or E-ZPASS | $10-44, depending on how many axles |
Breakaway will open first to businesses; personal accounts will be available shortly after the bridge begins operations.
Registration is available on the official Gordie Howe International Bridge website.
Companies interested in learning more about account options and toll rates for the Gordie Howe International Bridge are invited to join WDBA at upcoming Breakaway Business Sessions on March 23, 25, and 27.
