The New Jersey Turnpike Authority will suspend cash collections at all toll locations on the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway as of 10:00 p.m. March 24th as a precaution against the spread of COVID-19. All tolls will be collected electronically.
If you have an E-ZPass tag in your vehicle, the process will not change. The equipment in the lane will read your E-ZPass tag, and the cost of the toll will be deducted from the balance in your account, as usual.
If you do not have an E-ZPass tag, the equipment in the lane will capture a photograph of the license plate on the vehicle you are driving, and an invoice for the cost of the toll will be mailed to the registered owner. You will be billed at the cash toll rate; no additional administrative fees will be charged.
Cash customers who do not want to be billed can open an E-ZPass account by calling the New Jersey E-ZPass Customer Service Center at 888-AUTO-TOLL (888-288-6865) or by visiting www.ezpassnj.com.

Don’t worry we’re getting the bill in the mail. Thanks NJ ????
Don’t worry. They’ll hike those tolls almost double after this is all over to make up the loss.
Adele Marie you know it!
Adele Marie they aren’t taking a loss… they are sending you a bill!!
Adele Marie they already are. No one was there to fight it due to the virus. It was on 101.5
Double dipping because the toll hike is coming. Mark my words.
Adele Marie you support bonespurs?
Adele Marie yup. Especially if they shut anymore stuff down.
Kim Dufour Many are using this virus to profit. ????
Wait i thought he raised them last week
Adele Marie they are not forgoing the toll payment, u need EZ PASS or exact change lol god forbid we should get a break
Adele Marie you get the bill in the mail if you don’t have ez-pass.
I am just saying they are going to use the virus as an excuse to raise the tolls. As in “We lost our usual car count during the shelter in place period so we have no choice but to raise the tolls to make up for the deficit”. Do you not realize that not even 1/8th of cars are on the road right now? The Parkway is empty and dead quiet from 8pm to 5 am when normally I need earplugs to drown out the sounds of traffic at night to get to sleep. This has not been wasted on them. Believe me. They will hike the tolls.
Adele Marie THEY GET YOUR ELECTRONICALLY. IF YOU DON’T HAVE E-ZPASS THEY AREN’T YOU A BILL.
Beth Lane Beth, that’s neither here nor there. The problem is the reduction of cars on the parkway and other toll roads. They will use the pandemic as justifucation for their next toll hike. I am sorry you don’t grasp the concept of corrupt capitalism. So carry on and gave a nice day.
SORRY FOR THE TYPIS
It sure be free.not everyone is working .not getting payed .why sure toll road…
All tolls now plus 50 dollars…
Tony Pagano read the article

Helen Winkler haha bullshit! And my ezpass works everytime…????????????
Tony Pagano take it from someone who has a family member that work for the njtpk, as he stated THEY WILL NOT BE CHARGING YOU A FINE IF YOU DO NOT HAVE EZPASS all you will have to pay is the toll
Richard Sorrentino OK ???? I’M DRIVING WITHOUT MY EZPASS FROM NOW ON LETS SEE IF I GET BILLS OR MORE FINES ????
Tony Pagano u will only get the bill in the mail of how much the toll was
Richard Sorrentino If there crapy system worked I shouldn’t even get that!
It probably costs more to send the bill by mail than the toll.

We shouldn’t be paying tolls in the first place they don’t even fix those roads
Rita Parsons Jones actually they do..
The parkway is one of the nicest roads in NJ.
They are also the first ones to plow and salt in the winter.
Carlos Martinhocome down south there r holes in the road but yes they do salt and plow very well
Rita Parsons Jones you should see the ones in PA, I could lay in them.
Carlos Martinho ????♀️
Why not suspend all tolls for the time being
DeStefano Allison because NJ is too greedy to do that!!
Chuck Johnson
Wow only a week and a half behind everybody else!
Bill Boyer you will still get a bill in the mail
Betty Ann Fuller oh I know but all the other states around us were doing this over a week ago
Jaclyn Tosoni
Monica Elizabeth I’m gonna go joy ride the parkway now just Bc I can ???? I’m also writing to be reimbursed for my .50 cents I paid yesterday ????????????????
And I’ll be quick to pay the bill ????
Danielle April Don’t okay the bill the expect to get tickets in the mail for not paying and maybe they should up with a warrant for you
The road work never ends- fuck the parkway tolls, we’re in the middle of a pandemic, what can they do?
Shouldn’t be collecting toll at a time of a World Pandemic.
Roe-Roe Marie El greedo strikes again.
Alison Tracy Nachtigall
They’re going to accidentally charge and they better send prepaid envelopes
I don’t have checks so they better consider that.
Cherise Ricigliano THEN GET THE TICKETS AND OKAY ALONG WITH THE CURRY FEES WHEN FOUND GUILTY
Tolls should be suspended all together.
How about free…there’s an idea!
Why not suspend tolls temporarily to help people.
Louise Travaglio Why should they when other aren’t supposed to be on the roads anyway
Beth Lane some of my family members have to work. They are medical workers and also work for the navy. They use the parkway. Not everyone is home.
