The Confederation bridge links (Image: Getty) The Confederation Bridge, also known as Pont de la Confédération, which links Prince Edward Island with New Brunswick in Canada , is a marvel of modern engineering and the world’s longest bridge over ice-covered water. Ordinarily, tolls on the Confederation Bridge, which opened on May 31, 1997, are adjusted annually in line with inflation . However, Transport Canada announced it will provide funding to Strait Crossing Bridge Limited to offset rising costs, ensuring businesses and individuals are not burdened further amid inflationary pressures.

Federal Transport Minister Pablo Rodriguez stated in a news release: "We know the Confederation Bridge has a huge impact for local community members and businesses." function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.createElement('script');el.
