Guyana toll road price
Toll rates in Guyana depend on the toll facility, vehicle type, and payment method. It also depends on:
- Road system: Parallel highways, both with double lane, construction site or central barrier
- Road lanes: Double lane roads with central lane and single lane roads with one lane per direction
This implies that despite having multiple toll plazas on the same highway, it may not mean an increase in overall tolls - rather fraction of the total toll for the length of the road.
| Toll Road | Toll Price for Cash(GY$) |
|---|---|
| Demerara Bridge | 2200.00 |
| Berbice Bridge | 200.00 |
| Mackenzie/Wismar Bridge | 60.00 |

1. Cash
2. Credit / Debit card
