Good news for everyone that commutes to-and-from Niterói on a regular basis: we have a new business running the Rio de Janeiro – Niterói Bridge and the toll has decreased from R$5.20 to R$3.70.

New price at the bridge from today!

The new business in charge is called EcoRodovias and they willl invest R$1.2 billion reais in the next 5 years. And new toll at rio-niteroi bridge is valid from today, the 1st of June 2015.

More traffic on the bridge in Rio de Janeiro?

Most of the people who take the bridge on a daily basis go from Niterói to work in Rio early in the morning, returning at the end of the day. This is the reason why we have a massive traffic from 6.30am to 8.30am. Therefore some people are saying that the new toll will only add more cars to a (already) very busy bridge worsening even more the problem.

Without a doubt we can say that Itacoatiara is the most beautiful beach in Niterói, Rio de Janeiro. If you come on holiday to Rio, Itacoatiara is worth visiting. Located only 40 minutes by bus from the ferry terminal it offers great views and amazing photo opportunities!

Once in Rio you should go to the ferry terminal located at Praça XV. It´s a beautiful 20-minute ride across the Guanabara Bay. Once in Niterói you take the bus number 39 towards Itaipu. Or you can catch a cab to make your journey even faster.
