<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">You pay tolls only when entering Canada (northbound). There are no tolls when entering the United States (southbound). Pedestrians and cyclists cross for free in both directions.</p>

<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">Key Reality:</strong> This is one of only two privately-owned toll bridges on the US-Canada border (the other being Ambassador Bridge in Detroit). The bridge is essential for northwestern Ontario and northern Minnesota commerce, serving as the busiest border crossing in Minnesota.</p>

<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;"><strong style="font-weight: bold;">2025 Update:</strong> New ownership since 2023 with simplified toll structure. Current rates: $9 USD for cars, $72 USD for 12-trip commuter cards, with significant rate increases from previous years affecting local communities on both sides.</p>

<h2 style="font-size: 24px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 25px 0 15px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #a2a9b1; padding-bottom: 2px;">International Falls Bridge Toll Rates</h2>

<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">The International Falls Bridge operates with a simplified toll structure implemented in November 2023, with rates charged only for northbound traffic entering Canada.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Do I pay tolls in both directions?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">No, you only pay when entering Canada (northbound). There are no tolls when entering the United States (southbound). This makes round trips cost only $9 USD total.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Can I use credit cards or electronic payment?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">No, the bridge accepts only cash (US or Canadian dollars) or pre-purchased commuter cards. No credit cards, E-ZPass, or other electronic payment methods are accepted.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Are there alternatives to the International Falls Bridge?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">This is the only vehicle crossing between International Falls and Fort Frances. The nearest alternative crossings are hours away in either direction, making this bridge essential for the region.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">What happens if I don't have exact change?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">The toll booth operator can make change, but having exact change speeds up the process. Both US and Canadian currency are accepted at current exchange rates.</p>

<h3 style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: bold; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; margin: 15px 0 8px 0;">Are there any discounts available?</h3>
<p style="font-size: 16px; color: #202122; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 1.6; margin: 8px 0;">The main discount is the commuter card: $72 USD for 12 trips versus $108 USD for 12 individual trips, saving $36 USD (33% discount). No other discounts are currently available.</p>
