Congestion Relief Zone

Starting in June 2024, vehicles entering the Congestion Relief Zone in Manhattan—local streets and avenues at or below 60 Street—will be charged a toll, relieving crowding in what is today the most congested district in the United States.

Toll Information

The best way to get the lowest toll rate is to sign up for an E-ZPass account with the New York Customer Service Center. Customers can save at least 25% off of the Tolls by Mail Rate. The best way to manage your E-ZPass account is through the Tolls NY app. More information can be found in the videos and links below.

About us

We serve more than 920,000 vehicles on an average day. In 2023, we carried more traffic than any bridge and tunnel authority in the nation—more than 336 million vehicles. Surplus revenues from our tolls help support MTA public transit services.

All of our crossings use cashless, electronic tolling systems. This lets us process traffic more quickly and safely and reduces carbon emissions and fuel consumption.
