2019 Turnpike Toll Increase Means It Will Cost $53 To Cross PA

Tolls on the Pennnsylvania Turnpike will be going up as of Jan. 6, 2019. The six percent toll increase is for both E-ZPass and cash customers and will apply to all PA Turnpike sections and extensions.

The 2019 toll increase is needed to meet funding obligations as well as maintaining and improving the 552-mile PA Turnpike system, according to the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission.

Cash customers driving a regular passenger vehicle who want to cross the state from the Philadelphia region west to the Ohio border will now pay more than $53 to do so.

Drivers who use the Delaware River Bridge will also see an increase — from $5.00 to $5.30 for E-ZPass customers and from $6.75 to $7.20 for those who use PA Turnpike TOLL-BY-PLATE.

The most common toll for a Class-5 tractor-trailer truck will increase from $3.45 to $3.66 for E-ZPass and from $15.35 to $16.30 for cash, the Turnpike Commission said.
