But let's say you're right about the interchange costing 150 - 180 million, a traffic / $ can easily be made, and not in favor of the bridge I think. So yeah the comparison blows, Peace bridge fans should stop using it.
The difference between the Peace Bridge and suburban interchanges is that the inner city pays enough taxes to support the infrasctructure it gets, while the surburbs don't.
