Nice/Middleton Bridge All-Electronic (Cashless) Tolling

The Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) began all-electronic tolling (AET) in October 2022 at the Nice/Middleton Bridge along southbound US Route 301. With AET cashless toll collection, there’s no slowing or stopping to pay tolls. Instead, motorists pay tolls at highway speed via E-ZPass, Pay-By-Plate or Video Tolling. Benefits of AET include increased safety, less engine idling and better fuel efficiency.
