Welcome to this weeks video. In truth I've been pondering about this bridge and toll for years. So finally I got around to taking a deeper look at it. That wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. Research is very hindered by countless news articles repeating their own information rather than any substance. So why is there a toll here, why are there no crossings near by and how exactly does this place make money?

1. We are not historians. We enjoy researching and learning, and with that we enjoy sharing our journeys with you. That said, sources for information often listed below with credits.
2. Errors. Whilst we make every attempt to not include any errors, research, and piecing stories together from dozens of sources sometimes leads to one or two. I will note here if any are found:
