  • An account without a tag (a video or Plate account). With this option you won't be issued a tag so you will be charged the video image processing fee (currently being waved until 31 December 2010) in addition to the toll for each trip on Go Between Bridge.
  • You can buy a Go Between Bridge trip pass. This option is suitable for casual users who make only a few trips on Go Between Bridge each year. Each trip pass is valid for a single trip on Go Between Bridge, in one direction.

If you drive on Go Between Bridge, and you don't have a valid tag, non-tag account or trip pass, there is no need to panic. You'll be able to buy a trip pass or set up an account within three days following your trip over the bridge.

If after three days you have not opened an account or purchased a pass then, for a limited time only, we will send a toll invoice to the registered owner of the vehicle. The toll invoice will be for the amount of the toll plus an administration fee.

If the toll invoice is not paid then you will be sent an infringement notice issued by Brisbane City Council.
