HHB app-solutely thrilled with launch of MACPASS self-serve portal
After more than two years of development, Halifax Harbour Bridges launched significant online enhancements to improve the way MACPASS customers can pay their bills and understand their account.
The new MyMACPASS.com self-serve website offers bridge users an all-in-one option for everything they need to cross the harbour. This new system also gives our back-end technology a major refresh, making it compatible with soon-to-come advanced tolling technology.
The system allows users to make payments, review their usage or update their banking information from a computer, smartphone or tablet. For additional value, HHB also introduced a MACPASS App that allows commuters a live look at traffic volumes on the bridges and offers push notifications of closures or traffic interruptions.
New website too!
A new HHB website (halifaxharbourbridges.ca), launched in August 2023, was designed with three primary objectives: to provide another source for comprehensive traffic information, to share MACPASS information and to provide detailed crossing information.
The site offers updates on bridge news and events, toll rates, vehicle restrictions, active transportation options (for pedestrians and cyclists) and a Visitors’ Guide to ensure safe crossings.
As part of HHB’s commitment to transparency, the site also includes its mission and mandate, as well as biographies of the Commission’s board members and hosts a wide range of documents ranging from annual reports and strategic plans to policies.
HHB is proud to feature the work of local Halifax photographers throughout the website, showcasing beautiful images of the bridges.
