Come on KC, if the Humber Bridge can drop the toll prices, drop the prices of your packages.

KC are too expensive compared to other providers.

The toll prices have been reduced!? I thought they were talking about raising them again fairly recently?

Talk is they could be reduced by half the current price under the Government "Infrastructure Plan". Will be interesting to see.

The price drop is due to them writing off about 100 million from the debt. Don't see why they couldn't just write it all off since all the outstanding debt is just interest.

I also read somewhere that the government could muscle in, if the bridge board refuse to half them, that's still a possibility.
