POINT EDWARD, ON, March 17, 2026 /CNW/ - The Federal Bridge Corporation Limited (FBCL) announced today that toll rates at the Blue Water Bridge will remain unchanged following its annual toll rate review for the fiscal year starting April 1, 2026.
As a federal Crown Corporation, FBCL operates with a mandate to serve the public interest by providing safe, efficient and sustainable border crossing infrastructure. This year's decision to maintain current toll rates reflects the Corporation's commitment to supporting the regional economy and ensuring the bridge remains an accessible gateway for all travellers and commercial carriers.
