Toll on bridges.

(1) The Municipality may, with the sanction of the State Government, establish a toll-bar on any bridge in the municipal area and levy a toll on vehicles, carriages, and carts using such bridge: Provided that no such toll-bar shall be established, or tolls levied, for any purpose other than the purpose of recovering the expenses incurred in the construction of such bridge together with interest on such expenses and in maintaining such bridge in good repair. (2) The State Government may, with the consent of a Municipality, make over to such Municipality any existing toll-bar on a bridge within the municipal area to be administered by the Municipality and, thereupon, such Municipality shall administer such toll-bar until the State Government directs otherwise. Every such toll-bar, while so administered, shall be deemed to be a municipal toll-bar, and the tolls derivable therefrom, or such parts thereof as shall be agreed upon between the State Government and the Municipality, shall be credited to the Municipal Fund.
