the toll increase was approved 1/4/08, but won't go into effect until 3/2/08

Quote:
In addition to the PATH fare changes, the following adjustments in the Port Authority’s toll and fare structure will take effect on March 2, 2008. Tolls for drivers using E-ZPass on the Port Authority’s two tunnels and four bistate bridges will increase from $4 to $6 for off-peak travel and from $5 to $8 in peak hours, providing a greater incentive for off-peak travel, while cash tolls will increase from $6 to $8. The toll increase for trucks and buses would vary, depending on the number of axles and payment method. This toll adjustment plan includes future adjustments based on increases to the Regional Consumer Price Index. In addition, tunnel and bridge customers who use qualifying low-emission vehicles will be eligible to register that vehicle for the Port Authority GreenPass Plan, which will offer a $4 E-ZPass off-peak toll rate - no increase above the current off-peak rate.

I kind of feel bad for them- they weren't making much money off the tolls before... :roll:
