MD. Transportation Authority - New Toll Rates

NEW TOLL RATES FOR LARGE TRUCKS AND VEHICLES WITH TRAILERS EFFECTIVE JAN. 1, 2012

New Base Toll Rates and Video Toll Rates* for vehicles with three or more axles at fixed-toll facilities (does not include the Intercounty Connector):

Adjust cash/base toll rates for vehicles with three and four axles and vehicles towing light trailers by reducing the multipliers used to set these rates. This results in no change to toll rates at some facilities and reduces current rates at others.

At the Bay Bridge, the following Cash/Base toll rates go into effect:
3-axle vehicle:  $8 (decrease from $9)
4-axle vehicle:  $12 (no change)
5-axle vehicle:  $24
6+-axle vehicle:  $30

The following Video Toll Rates also go into effect:
3-axle vehicle:  $12 (decrease from $13.50)
4-axle vehicle:  $18 (no change)
5-axle vehicle:  $36
6+-axle vehicle:  $45

*Video Toll Rates for vehicles without valid payment at a Maryland toll facility are 150% of the base toll rate with a minimum of $1/maximum of $15 above the base rate.

E-ZPass Maryland business account discounts (do not apply to ICC):
-  Restructure post-usage discounts, limiting discounts to vehicles with five or more axles.
-  Expand the supplemental rebate program to individual transponders making 60 or more trips per month and limit rebates to vehicles with five or more axles.

Specific toll rates and rebate amounts are on-line at mdta.maryland.gov. 

On July 1, 2013, new toll rates for all vehicles will take effect.
