2 The high rate for small animals on Stonebridge is designed to discourage passage of flocks of sheep and goats.
The Bridges
There are three bridges crossing the Dorian River in Haven; these are Stonebridge, Woodbridge, and Southbridge (very imaginative names - the northernmost bridge is constructed of stone, the middle one of wood, and the third lies at the southernmost end of the island). Stonebridge and Woodbridge both lead to and from Trade Island and both are toll bridges; both are closed from midnight ‘til 6:00am each night. Southbridge is only a footbridge, with no vehicular or animal traffic allowed, and there is no charge to use it; it is never closed (except in extremely bad weather).
The tolls are higher on Stonebridge (the official reason being the higher cost of upkeep), so most of the poorer folk use Woodbridge or Southbridge; the tolls are based on the type of traffic, and are figured in bits.
