The price of a toll will depend on the distance traveled and
whether a money-saving toll tag is used. In 2009, the tolls, without a toll
tag, will be approximately $0.12 to $0.17/mile.
The cost of passenger vehicles will be approximately $0.12 to
$0.17/mile.
The average costs of trucks (Two axles or more) will be
approximately $0.48/ mile.
SH 45SE will provide convenience and time savings to motorists
by offering electronic toll collection. With the use of an electronic tag that
is mounted to the inside of a windshield, a motorist can drive non-stop through
designated toll lanes. A transponder mounted above the toll lanes will detect
the electronic tag and deduct the toll amount from a pre-paid account. Toll
rates will be discounted 10% for motorists using an electronic toll tag. You may open a TxTag account can at www.txtag.org or by calling the Customer Service Center at 1-888-GoTxTag.
For additional convenience to motorists, the electronic toll
collection system will also be compatible with other toll road systems in Texas. A new technology, known as TxTagG, will allow motorists to use one electronic
toll tag on any current or future toll road in the state. See more on
TxTag.
