CT DOT Proposed Tolling Locations Throughout Connecticut
The debate on tolls is now underway in the General Assembly, HB 6058.
The residents of Connecticut should be fully informed of all plans so that they can provide feedback to their elected officials as to their support or opposition on this issue.
The CT DOT has proposed installing tolls along major routes throughout Connecticut, including I-84, I-95, I-91, and Routes 2, 8, 9, and 11. The toll locations would not only be along the borders of our state, but also heavily scattered throughout.
Included below are two maps of CT Department of Transportation (DOT) proposed tolling locations along I-84 and I-95, in addition to the reports that detail the dynamic pricing (higher price during peak hours vs. lower price during non-peak hours).
The below report details plans and locations for toll booths on I-84 west of Hartford to New York.
