The International Bridge Administration is reminding travelers to check their bills before crossing the river again, according to a press release issued today. Prox card users can check their account balances or receive new cards online. The full text of the announcement is as follows: As entry requirements to the Canadian border ease on April 1, the International Bridge Administration (IBA) wants to remind customers visiting travelers resuming international crossings to check their accounts. The Government of Canada has announced that it will abolish the pre-entry requirement for the COVID-19 test for fully vaccinated travelers on April 1. Details are available on the Canadian Border Services website. “We are ready to welcome back our customers on both sides of the border,” said bridge manager Peter Petainen. “We just want to remind them to make sure their accounts are in order before they cross the border.” IBA staff urge Prox card users to check their account balances, obtain new cards if needed, and update their credit card information for a charge. They can do so on the IBA website at or by calling 906-635-5255 or 705-942-4345, ext. 105 or 0. Balances on unused Prox deck bridges have not changed during pandemic-related border restrictions.
