Municipalities Act and the constitutional entry for tolls. The court construed the term in light of legal usage and legislative history, holding that a toll is not confined to narrow highway tolls or to a direct quid pro quo for each vehicle. It was sufficient that the levy was supported by the general public advantage and amenities provided within the municipal area.
