It'll soon be more expensive for Windsorites to cross the border into Detroit.
Effective New Year's Day, the Detroit Windsor Tunnel will cost $0.50 more for both card and Nexpress users.
Credit card users will soon have to pay $7.25 to cross through the Windsor-Detroit borders, while the cost for Nexpress users will go up to $5.90.
"The increase is necessary to allow us to plan for our future capital projects," said Tal Czudner, the CEO of Windsor Detroit Borderlink Limited, which operates the Canadian side of the tunnel.
The tunnel cost comes after the Ambassador Bridge revealed it, too, is increasing tolls on Jan. 1, 2025.
Earlier this month, the company announced the toll for a passenger vehicle on the bridge is going up to $12 — a full dollar compared to the 2024 fare.
Paying in U.S. dollars, the rate from the U.S. to Canada will be $9 US, up from $8 US.
