Thruway Authority Could Vote to Implement Toll Increases Today

December 5, 2022 by Jeff Lewis

The Thruway Authority’s Board of Directors could today vote to implement two five-percent toll increases system-wide, and a four-year toll increase on the Tappan Zee Bridge. Rockland County Executive Ed Day says comparisons to higher costs on the George Washington bridge and other New-Jersey-to- New-York-City crossings can’t jusify the increases being proposed…

Rockland Business Association CEO Al Samuels says there’s bi-partisan support in opposition to the increased tolls, but he’s not ready to predict what the Thruway Authority will do…

Tolls for New York E-ZPass holders could go up 50 cents each year for four straight years, starting January first 2024, eventually hitting $7.75 in 2027. There would be discounts for Rockland and Westchester commuters, but if you have an out-of-state EZ Pass or you don’t have any EZ Pass at all, the rates would be even higher. If the Thruway board of directors decides today to implement the plan, a series of reviews, including public hearings, would have to be held before it is made official.
