PA Turnpike Polls to Increase 5%

The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (PTC) approved a five percent toll increase for 2024. The commission said the toll for a Class-5 tractor trailer will increase from $14.40 to $15.20 for E-ZPass and from $29.40 to $30.90 for Toll By Plate. After the increase is applied, E-ZPass and Toll By Plate rates for passenger and commercial vehicles will round up to the nearest dime.

The new rate will take effect on Jan. 7, 2024.

According to PA Turnpike CEO Mark Compton, the PTC is obligated to raise rates annually as part of its legislative mandate to provide PennDOT supplemental funding for transit systems around the state as outlined by Act 44 of 2007. He said the payments were once $450 million a year, and have been reduced to $50 million annually, but PTC had to borrow to make those payments.

Because the Act-44 funding plan required borrowing by means of 30-year bonds, the PTC is obligated to increase tolls annually through at least 2053. The 5% toll-rate increase continues the Commission’s planned, multi-year reduction in annual increase rates with a goal of getting to 3% in 2028.
