5 INTERNATIONAL TOLL BRIDGES, TUNNELS AND FERRIES 1966 This report contains statistics of twelve bridges, one tunnel and seven ferries functioning as toll facilities for vehicles and pedestrians between Canada and the United States. Statistics of facilities used exclusively by railways, as well as those on which tolls are not charged, have been excluded. Data of firms engaged primarily in other activities and unable to provide separate information for this report are also omitted. It should be noted that only the traffic statistics are presented for the operations of Washington State Ferries and Black Ball Transport Incorporated, as these firms cannot provide separate financial data for their international services. Therefore while the traffic data for all twenty facilities are included, it has been possible to provide financial data for only eighteen firms. Treatment of Data The establishments contained in this publication belong to two industries, as designated by the Standard Industrial Class i[ication Manual published by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. The operation of toll ferries accross international waters is part of Industry Number 504, and the operation of toll bridges and tunnels between Canada and the United States is part of Industry Number 516.
