What are the most sacred places in the world? Well, the most sacred place is truly inside you. In the metaphoric sense, the most sacred place is in your own heart. That is where all sacred journeys source from, where all spiritual awareness resides, where all all of your acts of kindness, honor, and grace originate.
Tolling on the SR 520 Bridge started on December 29, 2011. As you pass through the tolling area (center of bridge deck) the system automatically detects your Good To Go pass (transponder) or license plate going both directions. The proper amount is deducted from your Good To Go tolling account.
The bridge officially achieved its 100 millionth crossing exactly forty years after its dedication, on June 25, 1998. The 50th anniversary of the bridge's opening was celebrated on November 1, 2007 in a ceremony hosted by the Mackinac Bridge Authority at the viewing park adjacent to the St. Ignace causeway.
