Harper Announcing Harbour Bridge Tolls Will Be Scrapped

Prime Minister Harper has made it official - tolls will be removed from the Harbour Bridge no later than March 31st of next year.


As reported - the federal government will forgive the bridge's 23 million dollar debt and will split the cost of the 35 million dollar upgrade currently underway with the provincial government.


The province will assume ownership of the bridge and scrap the tolls.  Harper made the announcement a short time ago during a news conference at the Marco Polo cruise terminal.
