Tolls to Go Up on Thruway and TZ Bridge, but Some Area Residents to Get Temporary Reprieve on Bridge Rates

December 2, 2020 by helpdesk1

If you travel on the New York State Thruway and the Tappan Zee Bridge but don’t use an EZ-Pass get ready to dig deeper into your wallet. The good news is, if you’re a Rockland or Westchester resident, and an EZ-Pass user, your bridge rates will remain the same through 2022. The Thruway Authority Board of Directors yesterday passed its budget, and starting January first Thruway tolls will jump 30%, though only for those without an EZ-Pass. EZ-Pass users won’t pay a dime more. The same won’t apply to the TZB, however. The current $4.75 toll for EZ-Pass users who aren’t Rockland or Westchester residents will go up 50 cents to $5.25 in 2021 and up to $5.75 in 2022. Those paying by mail will see a 30 percent hike. The Authority says the additional revenue is needed to fulfill its system-wide operations, debt service and capital needs through the upcoming forecast period. Thruway tolls have not been changed since 2010.
