ANNAPOLIS, MD - Tomorrow, tolls for bridges, tunnels and roadways across the state of Maryland will be lowered for the first time in nearly 50 years as part of Governor Larry Hogan's statewide Toll-Tax Rollback Plan. On May 7, Governor Hogan delivered on his promise to roll back Maryland's high toll rates and put money back into the pockets of hard-working Maryland families and businesses. From the Bay, Hatem and Nice bridges to the Harbor Crossings, the JFK Highway, the Intercounty Connector (ICC), and the new I-95 Express Toll Lanes (ETL), Governor Hogan's toll rollback, which takes effect tomorrow, will save Maryland citizens $270 million over the next five years. In the first week of July alone, Marylanders should save $2.1 million that they can spend on their 4thof July celebrations and summer vacations.
"We're giving Marylanders another reason to celebrate this July 4th as we decrease toll rates across the state," said Governor Hogan. "I was elected to roll back taxes, tolls and fees and I'm pleased to deliver on this promise by putting more than a quarter billion back into the pockets of hardworking Maryland families."
The following toll reductions and changes are effective Wednesday, July 1, 2015:
