If you are visiting New York and plan to drive, it is highly likely that you will have to pay tolls. As many of the toll facilities in New York are turning to Cashless Tolling[1], you would not be able to pay tolls with cash at most of the toll roads, tunnels or bridges. One option would be to pay tolls later using Toll By Mail. But it can be more expensive. If you wish to avoid receiving costly toll violation fines incurred when you end up using high-speed toll lanes without a toll tag, getting E-ZPass would be a good idea. If you are traveling to New York, you can get E-ZPass® On-the-Go here[2]. Read more about E-ZPass here.

New York tolls one-way or both ways?

Not all the toll bridges and tunnels in New York charge tolls in both the directions of travel. The toll bridges and tunnels that connect New York and New Jersey charge toll only while entering New York. No toll is charged while entering New Jersey. Similarly if you tarvel through Holland Tunnel or Lincoln Tunnel, you pay toll one-way, only while entering Manhattan. The table below answers the most burning questions related to the toll charges on toll bridges and tunnels in New York. Such as:

  • Do you pay tolls leaving NYC?
  • Which way do you pay the George Washington Bridge?
  • Is Hugh Carey Tunnel toll both ways?
  • Which way do you pay the toll on the Tappan Zee Bridge?
  • Does the Holland Tunnel charge both ways?
