That makes sense considering the tunnel is in Denmark and not the Netherlands. :pan:
I checked the toll rates for the Øresund Bridge-Tunnel and concluded there is some kind of seasonal variation. The toll rate was € 64 last summer, € 55 in January and now € 65 again. The DKK/SEK rates also vary, so it's not an exchange rate issue. They do not seem to officially publish these variations.
€ 65 is outrageously expensive by the way, I think this makes it the most expensive toll facility in Europe.
Though commuters can enter a subscription plan which dramatically lowers the toll. So it's mostly tourists (and trucks) that pay these toll rates.
Still, the Helsingør - Helsingborg ferry charges € 33 for a crossing, so you'd think that would take some tourist traffic away from the Øresund Bridge.
