The whole point of them ripping down the tolls is that there are no other spots in NY along the 90 that charge like that. Im sure NY has alot of bridge and tunnel tolls and shit for sure.

75 cents was ridiculous to go through those tolls, especially when none of the money was used for WNY

This will probably piss you guys off.

My neighbor is a toll taker. He told me it’s been a big joke at the thruway for at least 5 years that those tolls should be removed. I guess they cost more to staff and maintain than they actually take in, but they stayed in place to be a bargaining chip for contract negotiations.

And I wouldn’t give Higgins much credit on this because he simply joined the bandwagon. The lawsuit by Carl Paladino, and the resulting fact finding, is what brought these tolls down. If anyone deserves a pat on the back it’s him.

As for when they stop collecting, it’s immediate. If you go through it right now it should already be free.

JuicedGT is right. not only they increase at every exit it must be exact change!

I notice this morning that they put up temporary signs for the speed limit. Kicks down to 45 then to 25. I bet it stays 25 to get through those booths unless they end up taking them down.
