toll bridge
Fee-charging river span
A toll bridge is a bridge that charges a fee for crossing.
Tolls fund construction, maintenance, or profit for the bridge's operator.
Some toll bridges use automated systems—The toll bridge scanned my transponder as I drove through—while others collect cash.
The term extends figuratively to any situation requiring payment for access.
