How much is the toll increase on the Pennsylvania Turnpike?

With EZ-Pass, most motorists driving in standard passenger vehicles can expect to pay $1.90 instead of the previous $1.80. For drivers using the pay-by-plate electronic method, the toll will increase from $4.40 to $4.70. For "class 5" trucks, the most common toll increase will go from $29.40 to $30.90 - over a dollar more.

As annoying as the price hikes may be, don't expect them to stop. The PA Turnpike Commission is required to increase the tolls every year. But in 2028, PA turnpike drivers won't have to expect a price hike like this one. in 2028, the toll increase will only be by 3%.
