Drivers Without E-ZPass Can Pay MD Toll Balances Online

MARYLAND — Drivers who do not have E-ZPass can make payments for tolls currently listed in the tolling system for their vehicle for trips made on or before June 30. The balances due can be paid online or by visiting an MDTA Customer Service Center at its toll facilities. At ezpassmd.com customers can view the number and dollar amount of these toll transactions currently pending in the system. Just click on “Pay Video Toll” and enter the vehicle information.

On March 17, in response to the coronavirus pandemic and to assist and provide financial relief to customers, the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) halted cash tolling operations and initiated statewide all-electronic tolling. The MDTA also stopped processing and mailing notices of toll due, temporarily adjusted the video toll rate down to the cash rate at toll facilities that were accepting cash as of March 17, and extended expiration dates of E-ZPass discount plans.

Customers should take note of the following tolling updates that will occur in upcoming weeks as Maryland has moved into Phase III of its coronavirus recovery plan:

• Toll due notices will be mailed starting in mid-October, beginning with unpaid transactions for trips made from March through June.
• Effective Nov. 1, standard 45-day plan cycles resume for E-ZPass Maryland Discount Plans at the Bay Bridge (US 50/301), Nice/Middleton Bridge (US 301) and throughout the Baltimore region – including the Fort McHenry (I-95) and Baltimore Harbor (I-895) tunnels, Francis Scott Key (I-695) and Hatem (US 40) bridges, and John F. Kennedy Memorial Highway (I-95) – and the standard 90-day plan cycle resumes for the Bay Bridge (US 50/301) Shoppers Plan.

As part of Maryland’s pandemic recovery, MDTA has made all-electronic tolling permanent statewide.
