Answer:

The bridge 's owner has a natural monopoly, and the marginal production cost (letting another car drive through it) is close to nil.

Explanation:

Since building several bridges to compete is inefficient, but building one bridge at a lower average cost to customers would be effective. If the private monopolist builds the bridge it can charge customers exceptionally high prices.

There is a high fixed cost involved with constructing a bridge. Hence constructing a bridge is a mere privilege. Furthermore, there is no extra cost to allow another car to cross the bridge. It means that the marginal cost is zero or closer.
