Turnpike tolls to increase starting this weekend for 13th straight year

HARRISBURG, Pa. — Toll increases announced earlier this year are set to go into effect this coming weekend, and you’ll pay even more out of pocket if you don’t use E-ZPass.

In July, the turnpike commission approved a 6% toll increase for E-ZPass rates across the state, and for the Toll by Plate rates at six locations:

• Beaver Valley Expressway (I-376)
• Delaware River Bridge (New Jersey border)
• Gateway Toll Plaza (Ohio border)
• Greensburg Bypass (PA Turnpike 66)
• Keyser Avenue and Clarks Summit Tolls (I-476/Northeastern Extension)
• Findlay Connector (PA Turnpike 576/Southern Beltway)

Additionally, there are new Toll by Plate rates at all other toll facilities. The new rates include a 6% increase as well as an additional 45% increase over the 2020 cash rate.

The new rates will mean a passenger vehicle will increase from $1.50 to $1.60 for E-ZPass customers, and from $2.50 to $3.90 for the Toll by Plate. A Class-5 tractor trailer will increase from $12.20 to $13 for E-ZPass, and from $17.30 to $26.60 for Toll by Plate customers.
