flag Ferry and bridge traffic in Atlantic Canada surged after federal fare and toll cuts took effect in late 2025.

flag Ferry traffic in Atlantic Canada surged in late 2025 after the federal government halved fares and reduced tolls on Prince Edward Island’s Confederation Bridge, fulfilling a campaign promise. flag Between August 1 and September 25, passenger traffic on the Saint John–Digby route rose 34% and vehicle crossings jumped 39%, while bookings for summer 2026 nearly doubled. flag Tourism PEI reported a 25% increase in bridge traffic in August, and air travel declined by about 16%. flag Officials attribute the growth to lower travel costs and a push for domestic tourism, with reduced fares set to last until at least 2029 for ferries and 2032 for the bridge.
