Tolls for tunnel travel to increase on January 1

It will cost you a little more to commute through the Windsor-Detroit Tunnel in the new year.

The tunnel will increase its toll to the U.S. from $6.75 to $7.25, effective January 1.

For those who use Nexpress, the cost will go up 50 cents to $5.90.

"The increase is necessary to allow us to plan for our future capital projects," said Windsor Detroit Borderlink Limited CEO Tal Czudner. "The tunnel will continue to be the best value option to get from Windsor to Detroit."

The tunnel is cashless, with credit card and debit card payments accepted.

Complete information about tunnel travel and the Nexpress program can be found on the tunnel's official website.
