Last month, New York State Thruway officials approved a hike in toll increases starting in January 2024, the first toll adjustment in 14 years.

New York State Thruway Authority Board of Directors voted to approve the toll adjustment proposal on the New York State Thruway system, which will affect CMV’s, including oversize loads.
The vote comes after a public toll adjustment process that began on Dec. 5, 2022, which included five public hearings in 2023, receipt and consideration of public comments, completion of the Environmental Assessment for the proposed toll modification, as well as the completion of all of the necessary actions required by the Public Authorities Law, the State Administrative Procedure Act (SAPA) and the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQRA).
The Thruway Authority, supported by analysis from its independent traffic engineering consultants, determined that there are additional revenues required for the Authority to fulfill its system-wide operating, debt service, and capital needs through the upcoming forecast period.
Fees will not increase in 2023.
